Like a twisted olive tree in its 500th year, giving then its finest fruit, is man. How can he give forth wisdom until he has been crushed and turned in the Hand of God.

Beloved is man, for he was created in the image of God. Beloved are Israel, for they were called children of God. Beloved are Israel, for unto them was given the desirable Torah

In the beginning, sin is like a thread of a spider's web. But in the end, it becomes like the cable of a ship.

Jesting and levity lead a man to lewdness.

Beloved is man, for he was created in the image of God.

The paper burns, but the words fly away.

Everything is foreseen, yet freedom of choice is granted.
