Rabbi Yehudah HaNassi would say:

Which is the right path for man to choose for himself? Whatever is harmonious for the

one who does it, and harmonious for mankind.

Be as careful with a minor mitzvah as with a major one, for you do not know therewards of the mitzvot. Consider the cost of a mitzvah against its rewards, and the

rewards of a transgression against its cost.

Contemplate three things, and you will not come to the hands of transgression: Know

what is above from you: a seeing eye, a listening ear, and all your deeds being

inscribed in a book.

Do not believe in yourself until the day you die. Do not judge your fellow until you have stood

in his place.

Do not say something that is not readily understood in the belief that it will ultimately be

understood

And do not say "When I free myself of my concerns, I will study,'' for perhaps you will never

free yourself.
