'My father never talked to me,
Except when we studied together.
He thought me with silence
He thought me to look into myself,
To find my own strength,
To walk inside myself in company with my soul. " - Danny, the Chosen by Chaim Potok
" one learns of the pains of others by suffering one's own pain, by turning inside oneself, by finding one's own soul.
And it is important to know pain.
It destroys our self-pride, our arrogance, and our indifference towards others. It makes us aware of how frail and tiny we are and of how much we must depend upon the Master of the Universe. "
