Quote

My wife and I are affiliated with a temple here in Los Angeles. We feel very close to the congregation and to the rabbi, who happens to be my wife's cousin and who I admire greatly. I talk to him regularly but I consider myself more spiritual than religious.

Pablo Casals has this simple and sincere attitude of knowing where it's at - of saying, This is the way it is. If I thought I could carry some of that into my life, I would be happy.
