“If I am not for myself, who will be for me? But if I am only for myself, what am I? And if not now, when?” — Pirkei Avot 1:14
The most quoted rabbi in Jewish history. Hillel arrived in Jerusalem from Babylon broke, slept on rooftops to listen to Torah lectures through the skylight, and rose to become Nasi of the Sanhedrin (Pirkei Avot 1:13). His school’s lenient contextual readings became the dominant tradition; the stricter House of Shammai survives in the Talmud mostly to be argued against. His Golden Rule formulation predates Jesus’s “do unto others” by roughly two generations.
