"The division of Judaism into “Orthodox,” “Conservative,” “Reform,” etc., is artificial. For all Jews have one and the same Torah, given by the one and same G-d, though there are more observant Jews and less observant Jews. To tag on a label does not, of course, change the reality of Jewish essence." ~~ Rebbe Menachem Schneerson
"The purely righteous do not complain about evil, rather they add justice. They do not complain about heresy, rather they add faith. They do not complain about ignorance, rather they add wisdom. " ~~ Rav Avraham Yitzchak Kook

" ~~ Rebbe Menachem Schneerson
"Whithersoever Israel were exiled, the Divine Presence was with them." ~~ Mekhilta

Sinai, until the end of time. " ~~ Rebbe Menachem Schneerson
