“A small town has no change  for large bills.”
–Rav Nosson Zvi Finkel, the Alter of Slabodka


2 cents:  Yeah, there might be change for two cents in Slabodka.  I have always thought that this quote from the Alter meant that in relationships with others, or in a kehillah, “large bills”(an ego) really just gets in the way.  When we put ourselves first, that’s were problems arise.
