And the servants of Isaac dug in the valley, and they found a well of living water (26:19)

If a person tells you "I have toiled but I have not found"—do not believe him.

Talmud, Megillah 6b


The Rebbe's servant, who figured that the Rebbe must be searching for the egg noodles, exclaimed: "Rebbe, dig in further! The lokshen lies deeper down."

A wave of contentment passed over the Rebbe's tensed features. "Thank you," he said to his servant, "You have revived my soul . . ."
