If I am not for myself, who will be for me?
In a place where there are no men, strive to be a man. The Torah is the best of all things. The more you learn, the more you realize you don't know. What is hateful to you, do not do to your fellow. Do not judge your fellow until you have stood in his place. The one who is humble is the one who is truly great. He who is kind to the cruel will ultimately be cruel to the kind. He who does not increase his knowledge decreases it. The greatest of all virtues is humility. The wise man is the one who learns from everyone. The one who is wise is the one who learns from others. The one who is merciful to others will be shown mercy. A person who is not kind to others is not a true Jew. |
