IN THE WORDS OF MUSSAR TEACHERS

The luxuries we indulge in eventually come to seem to be necessities as if we could not live without them.

RABBI YISRAEL SALANTER (1810–1883)

People search relentlessly for a city of happiness, not realizing that it can only be found in a state of mind.

– RABBI AVRAHAM PAM (1913–2001)

Modesty at a wedding means rejoicing fully in the singing, dancing, and feasting while inwardly striving to direct all of those activities for the happiness of the wedding couple, not for oneself.
