Customer Reviews

Rabbi Twerski is right on the money!

Many of us have heard the one-liners. Rabbi Twerski gives them meaning, by showing what was intended by the remark. In many of his books, Rabbi Twerski endeavors to illustrate that a nice story without a message is just that - a nice story. Showing how the story has relevance to today's issues brings it to life. Jews and non-Jews alike will enjoy this book. The timeless wisdom of the Chassidic Rebbes will entertain and amuse you. It pays to remember, though, that the Rebbes had more in mind than amusement when they uttered these adages. I enjoyed this book immensely, and am confident that you will, too.

A wonderful, inspiring book.

This book is a wonderful book for Orthodox Jews and the general public. It includes quotes and explainations of those quotes from many Chassidic Rabbis that are inspirational. For those who like "pick me up books" this will be an interesting book whether you are Jewish or even interested in Judaism or not. For those interested in Chassidic Judaism it can help give some input into the mindset/outlook.
