and finally from Heschel

Here are my last postings from the book "The Sabbath" by Rabbi Abraham Heschel.

"Monuments of stone are destined to disappear; days of spirit never pass away."

"Inner liberty depends upon being exempt from domination of things as well as from domination of people. There are many who have acquired a high degree of political and social liberty, but only very few are not enslaved to things. This is our constant problem - how to live with people and remain free, how to live with things and remain independent."

"All days of the week must be spiritually consistent with the Day of Days. All of our life should be a pilgrimage to the seventh day..."
