Mariam was annoyed. She was thinking in the evening of a whole furore which had begun earlier in the day because one person had repeated a remark made by another.
Mariam said to the Rabbi over a piece of bread and cheese, "Surely charity and common sense should have stopped the repetition of that remark, and we might have been spared the quarrel and had some peace."
The Rabbi answered, "In most cases, charity IS common sense."
