Sholom Aleichem Art Quotations

When have you ever heard of a cantor or any artist turning anyone down when he is strongly urged to perform?

When the heart is full it runs out of the eyes.

Playing nuts is a game like any other, neither better than tops, nor worse than cards. The game is played in various ways. There are 'holes' and 'bank' and 'caps.' But every game finishes up in the same way. One boy loses, another wins. And, as always, he who wins is a clever fellow, a smart fellow, a good fellow.

I will never permit myself to give in to American taste and lower the standards of art.
