If you have no tallit, wrap yourself in the four corners of the earth and pray.

More important than writing is erasing.

Blaze your own path. You can be sure that it has not been sullied by others.

There are three inns that a person visits during his earthly journey:

Even the greatest person—who has never sinned—must pray to G‑d that he not come to believe in himself, for self-aggrandizement is worse than the worst sin.

A person isn’t a goat, whose every movement is heralded by the bell on his neck.

A person has two eyes—one to see the greatness of G‑d and the other to see his own smallness.

Something that can be acquired in a single hour can be lost in half an hour.

Joy is wonderful. Through it, one can escape the worst of circumstances.

Through money, even the incorruptible can become corrupted.
