Rav Assi said three hundred thousand swordsmen went up to the Royal Mount and there slaughtered the people for three days and three nights, and yet while on the one side of the mount they were mourning, on the other they were merry; those on the one side did not know the affairs of those on the other.

Gittin, fol. 57, col. 1.

A certain disciple prayed before Rabbi Chanina, and said, “O God! who art great, mighty, formidable, magnificent, strong, terrible, valiant, powerful, real and honored!” He waited until he had finished, and then said to him, “Hast thou ended all the praises of thy God?  Need we enumerate so many?  As for us, even the three terms of praise which we usually repeat, we should not dare to utter had not Moses, our master, pronounced them in the law (Deut. x. 17), and had not the men of the Great Synagogue ordained them for prayer; and yet thou hast repeated so many and still seemest inclined to go on.  It is as if one were to compliment a king because of his silver, who is master of a thousand thousands of gold denarii.  Wouldst thou think that becoming?”

Berachoth, fol. 33, col. 2.

Rabbi Yossi ben Kisma relates, “I once met a man in my travels and we saluted one another.  In reply to a question of his I said, ’I am from a great city of sages and scribes.’  Upon this he offered me a thousand thousand golden denarii, and precious stones and pearls, if I would agree to go and dwell in his native place.  But I replied, saying, ’If thou wert to give me all the gold and silver, all the precious stones and pearls in the world, I would not reside anywhere else than in the place where the law is studied.’”

It is related by the Rabbis that Rabbon Yochanan ben Zacchai was once riding out of Jerusalem accompanied by his disciples, when he saw a young woman picking barley out of the dung on the road.  On his asking her name, she told him that she was the daughter of Nikodemon ben Gorion.  “What has become of thy father’s riches?” said he, “and what has become of thy dowry?” “Dost thou not remember,” said she, “that charity is the salt of riches?” (Her father had not been noted for this virtue.) “Dost thou not remember signing my marriage contract?” said the woman.  “Yes,” said the Rabbi, “I well remember it.  It stipulated for a million gold denarii from thy father, besides the allowance from thy husband,” etc.
