Martin Buber
(1878 - 1965)
"I do not accept any absolute formulas for living. No  preconceived code can see ahead to everything that  can happen in a man's life. As we live, we grow and our beliefs change. They must change. So I think we should live with this constant discovery. We should be open to this adventure in heightened awareness of living. We should stake our whole existence on our willingness to explore and experience. "
