“It is not your responsibility to finish the work [of perfecting the world], but you are not free to desist from it either.”
Rabbi Tarfon, a member of the third generation of Mishnah sages, from Pirkei Avot (Ethics of the Fathers) in the Mishna explaining the Torah
I really like the reminder that we are not responsible for everything, but each of us can do our part. Thanks.
I’m glad you found this generosity in quotes to be helpful.
