Rabbi
- Tevye: And in the circle of our little village, We've always had our special types. For instance, Yente the matchmaker, Reb Nachum the beggar... And most important of all, our beloved Rabbi.
- Leibesh: Rabbi, may I ask you a question?
- Rabbi: Certainly, Lebisch!
- Leibesh: Is there a proper blessing... for the Tsar?
- Rabbi: A blessing for the Tsar? Of course! May God bless and keep the Tsar... far away from us!
- Avram: [coming into the synagogue] I'm sorry, Rabbi...
- Rabbi: Yes of course, what news of the outside world?
- Avram: [holding up his paper] Terrible, Rabbi!
- Rabbi: Then don't tell me. If I want bad news, I'll read about Noah and the flood.
- [the shul laughs]
- Rabbi: Avram, surely somewhere there are good things happening. Can't you buy a paper that prints those things?
