How long ago was it that the Rabbi Hillel made his enquiry:
"If I am not for my Self, who is for me?
If I am only for myself, what am I?
If not now, when?"

I may be paraphrasing, but I think I'm remembering the intent exactly right. This is the last trump, the call to practice for Real. Who is there that *I* feel justified in barring my heart to? (There are always, will always be 'reasons.') How much time do I think I have? All I've ever had is NOW.
