Pray with great joy. This is certainly more acceptable before G-d than prayer that is in sadness and with tears. This can be understood with a parable: When a poor man supplicates and petitions the king, he is only given a small sum no matter how much he cries. But a prince praises the king, and in the midst of this also presents his petition. The king then gives him generous gifts, as befits a prince.

Daily Sayings

Baal Shem Tov

Time is deceptive; it lifts up anything light, and sets down anything heavy.

Do not overburden them (children). Teach quietly and gently, and give them pennies, for study cannot penetrate the mind unless pursued with tranquility and pleasure.

The world is like a person drinking salt water. One imagines that he is quenching his thirst, yet becomes more thirsty. No man dies having fulfilled even half of his desires.

Every instant a person remains silent, one merits reward beyond the comprehension of even the angels.
