FINDING TRUTH WHEREVER IT MAY BE FOUND: "Religion is the answer to man's ultimate questions. The moment we become oblivious to ultimate questions, religion becomes irrelevant, and its crisis sets in." from Abraham Joshua Heschel's, "A Philosophy of Judaism"
QUOTE II: "There are dead thoughts and there are living thoughts. A dead thought has been compared to a stone which one may plant in the soil. Nothing will come out. A living thought is like a seed. In the process of thinking, an answer without a question is devoid of life. It may enter the mind; it will not penetrate the soul. It may become a part of one's knowledge; it will not come forth as a creative force." same source

I KNEW you'd like the book! Heschel is a giant. I read everything, even the hard to find out of print, he wrote. Brilliant mind and he put it to work with his soul. He marched with Martin Luther King Jr. In fact, King called him a great prophet. Interesting, eh?
