"The human being is a microcosm of the universe."

"The world is sustained by three things: Torah, divine service, and acts of loving-kindness."

"The human soul is a divine spark, and it is capable of uniting with God."

"The true worship of God consists in the contemplation of His essence, and not in the performance of rituals."

"The aim of the law is to make man perfect, and it is impossible for man to be perfect so long as his mind is not perfect."
