Most benefactors are like unskillful generals who take the city and leave the citadel intact.
. . . courage is accompanied by patience and firm resolution? God sets courage like a sea around the weakness of our nature, enabling us to undermine the strongholds and citadels of the enemy.
There are routes not to be followed, armies not to be attacked, citadels not to be besieged, territory not to be fought over.
All we want, those few of us who have the strength to realize what's going on, is the freedom to create and entertain and share with each other, to preserve and cherish what we can while we can, and to build our own little citadels away from the insensitivity of the rest of the world.
Modesty is the citadel of beauty.
Freedom begins with what we teach our children. That is why Jews became a people whose passion is education, whose heroes are teachers and whose citadels are schools.
I'd like to see women get on to boards and run companies despite the fact that men occupy the citadels of power.
