Hillel said: Be of the disciples of Aharon, loving peace and pursuing peace, loving your fellow creatures, and bringing them near to the Torah.

The day is short, the work is much, the workmen are lazy, the reward is great, and the Master is pressing.

A protectve fence for wisdom is silence.

Rabbi Shimon ben Gamliel: All my days I have been raised among the sages, and I found nothing better for oneself than silence.

As Hillel declared: "If I am not for myself, who will be for me?"

Let your fellow mans honor be as dear to you as your own.

Rabbi Tarfon said: The day is short, the work is much, the workmen are lazy, the reward is great, and the Master is pressing.

Who is a wise person? He that learns from everyone. Who is strong? He who subdues his impulses. Who is wealthy? He who is satisfied with what he has. Who is honorable? He who honors others.

Do not condemn your friend: you do not know what you would have done in his place.

If I am not for myself, who is for me? And if I am only for myself, what am I? And if not now, when?

Let the honor of your fellow man be as dear to you as your own, and do not be easily moved to anger.
