-Ben Stiller, Actor, filmmaker, comedian
"Judaism teaches that each person is an entire world. Every one of you is here to do your part for something that is more lasting and significant than yourself. What you create will ripple out from you into the world in ways you cannot possibly imagine. While the vastness of awe can make you feel very small, it also calls you to transcend yourself to moral beauty."
-Angela Buchdahl, East Asian-American Senior Rabbi of Central Synagogue, New York City
"I cannot and will not cut my conscience to fit this year's fashions."
-Lillian Hellman, Playwright, memoirist, screenwriter
