More quotes by Martin Buber
All actual life is encounter.
Martin Buber
When a man grows aware of a new way in which to serve God, he should carry it around with him secretly, and without uttering it, for nine months, as though he were pregnant with it, and let others know of it only at the end of that time, as though it were a birth.
Martin Buber
The beating heart of the universe is holy joy.
Martin Buber
Persons appear by entering into relation to other persons.
Martin Buber

Martin Buber
What is it that is eternal: the primal phenomenon, present in the here and now, of what we call revelation? It is man's emerging from the moment of the supreme encounter, being no longer the same as he was when entering into it.
Martin Buber
I shall teach you the best way to say Torah. You must cease to be aware of yourselves. You must be nothing but an ear that hears what the universe of the word is constantly saying within you. The moment you start hearing what you yourself are saying, YOU must stop.
Martin Buber
The tradition of the camp fire faces that of the pyramid.
Martin Buber
God made so many different kinds of people why would God allow only one way to worship?
Martin Buber
The future stands in need of you in order to be born.
Martin Buber
Without being and remaining oneself, there is no love.
Martin Buber
We may listen to our inner self-and still not know which ocean we hear roaring.
Martin Buber
I have to tell it again and again: I have no doctrine. I only point out something. I point out reality, I point out something in reality which has not or too little been seen. I take him who listens to me at his hand and lead him to the window. I push open the window and point outside. I have no doctrine, I carry on a dialogue.
Martin Buber
Read the Bible as though it were something entirely unfamiliar, as though it had not been set before you ready-made. Face the book with a new attitude as something new.
Martin Buber
We can be redeemed only to the extent to which we see ourselves.
Martin Buber
The true meaning of love one's neighbor is not that it is a command from God which we are to fulfill, but that through it and in it we meet God.
Martin Buber
What has to be given up is not the I, as most mystics suppose: this I is indispensable for any relationship, including the highest, which always presupposes an I and You.
Martin Buber
