"The more deeply immersed I became in the thinking of the prophets, the more powerfully it became clear to me what the lives of the Prophets sought to convey: that morally speaking, there is no limit to the concern one must feel for the suffering of human beings, that indifference to evil is worse than evil itself, that in a free society, some are guilty, but all are responsible." -- Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel (b. 1907-01-11, d. 1972-12-23), "The Reasons for My Involvement in the Peace Movement" (1972) [thanks to Rabbi Danya Rutternberg for quoting this earlier]
