“Maybe it's 15 or 20 cities on a monthly rotation. So every Monday and Wednesday, I'm for sure on the road driving three, four, five hours away. Tuesday, I might hop over to, you know, an hour and a half away. So it could be two, three, sometimes even four days a week I could be on the road. ” - Rabbi Chaim Markovits

"No way. I'm not living in an RV. Like, what kind of life is that?" I said, "We're not interested."

"I wish we can record for you their reaction when we knock on their door. ‘How did you find me?’ ‘How do you know?’ ‘What are you doing here?’ - Rebbetzin Chayala Markovits

"They were simply not really familiar with what Chabad was. And they had a crisis meeting. “What are we going to do about this crisis that Chabad has moved to town, and they want to snatch all our young people and turn them into very religious Jews?” It was somewhat humorous, although a little bit difficult. " - Rabbi Yitzi Loewenthal

“Intermarriage was, like, 98 point something. You know, the statistics were that the community is over within 10 years. The numbers were not looking so good. " - Rebbetzin Rochel Loewenthal

Wellesley is a town that didn't have a Shabbos observant Jew since the six days of Creation. Since Adam and Eve, there had never been an observant Jew in Wellesley. But, that being said, if 80 years ago, they said, 'Is there a minyan of Shomer Shabbos in Lakewood, that would have been new also. Someone's got to make this happen." - Rabbi Moshe Bleich

“And then, almost as an afterthought, as we're walking by, the Rebbe gives, like, a half turn in my direction with my father and me. And he says, "Aun a Chossid by undzer oych." Which, literal translation, "And a Chassid by us as well."
