Lev Echad means One Heart in Hebrew and is symbolic of Jewish unity.

We are allowed to think and observe differently than one another, but we must always act decently toward one another.

ואהבת לרעך כמוך

To love your neighbor as yourself is the major principle of the Torah.

- Rabbi Akiva

The Golden Rule

What is hateful to you, do not do to your neighbor. This is the whole Torah! The rest is commentary.

- Hillel

A Universal Observation

There are only two races of human beings: the decent and the indecent.

- Viktor Frankl
