from Pirkei Avot, Ethics of the Fathers

"One who pursues greatness, greatness will flee from him; one who flees from
greatness, greatness will pursue him" (Talmud Eiruvin 13b).

I read the quotation in the Pirkei Avot emails I get, details below.

It made me think. Substitute "peace" for 'greatness."
