“Who understands the thrill of seeing the first bright flowers of spring so clearly as one who has just lived through the long, hard winter?”

“The great illusion of leadership is to think that man can be led out of the desert by someone who has never been there.”
― The Wounded Healer: Ministry in Contemporary Society

“The mystery of one man is too immense and too profound to be explained by another man.”

“Why should a man marry and have children, study and build a career; why should he invent new techniques, build new institutions, and develop new ideas--when he doubts if there will be a tomorrow which can guarantee the value of human effort?
Crucial here for nuclear man is the lack of a sense of continuity, which is so vital for a creative life. He finds himself part of a nonhistory in which only the sharp moment of the here and now is valuable. For nuclear man life easily becomes a bow whose string is broken and from which no arrow can fly. In his dislocated state he becomes paralyzed. His reactions are not anxiety and joy, which were so much a part of existential man, but apathy and boredom.”
