“A miracle is a gift of true knowledge. The greatest thing in life is to be aware of Hashem, to have a real feeling that you’re standing in front of Him. A miracle gives you that feeling in one flash. It’s served on a platter and you’re so impressed you’ll never forget it.” ~ R’ Avigdor Miller zt”l
“When I am about to start davening, I am overcome by a terrible sense of embarrassment. How can I approach Hashem in prayer when my life is so riddled with sin? On second thought, however, I realize that this must be my yetzer hara talking, trying to dissuade me from davening. How do I know it’s him? Because this never happens when I’m ready to eat!” ~ R’ Michel of Zlotchov zt”l from Torah Tavlin
“Sin is sweet in the beginning, but bitter in the end.” ~ Talmud (not sure where specifically)
“You write to me you are concerned that you no longer believe. If you don’t believe, then why does not believing concern you?” ~ The Lubavitcher Rebbe zt”l

How did Pharaoh’s daughter know that the child that she was pulling from the river was Jewish just from hearing him cry?

Rebbe Nachman says, you are angry at Hashem that everything is upside down, and therefore you are sad, but everything us upside down only because you are sad, if only you were happy, everything would be good!” ~ R’ Shlomo Carlebach zt”l
“We are all complimentary of each other, none of us complete, each one contributing what the other lacks, each one adding his touch of perfection to his fellow. Like a massive jigsaw puzzle, we fit together to make a single perfect whole. None of us is perfect without all the rest of us. And all the rest of us are incomplete when a single individual is missing.” ~ R’ Tzvi Freeman
“Money is fire. It can destroy and annihilate, or illuminate and warm, depending on how it is used.” ~ R’ Elimelech of Lizensk zt”l
