Teach thy tongue to say ‘I do not know,’ and thou shalt progress.
Maimonides Quotes
One should see the world, and see himself as a scale with an equal balance of good and evil. When he does one good deed the scale is tipped to the good - he and the world is saved. When he does one evil deed the scale is tipped to the bad - he and the world is destroyed.
