QUOTES AND PARAPHRASES FROM R. SHLOMO CARLEBACH IN KOL CHEVRE 3:1
No Sources given; so authenticity cannot be confirmed.  I includemy guesses.


R. Joe Schoenwald:  
	"Go do it, brother."

"In the two years...mourning his loss sometimes took variousexprerssions which were very personal and in that space excludedthe wider community of mourning.  It also prevented the work ofpromoting his teaching and music through the Foundation created inhis memory from being supported in a more cohesive way."
l2
COMMENT:  Why can't I write with such grace, tact, andunderstated force.
l1

R. Sam Intrator:
	In the 50's ... he would travel from Lakewood to Lubavitchwith a stopoff at Reb Shlomo Himan's shiur and then hop back overto a Rebbe's tish in the court of Bobov or Satmar.  This is atrack that very few would take back then...."

"I came to Poland to kiss and hug every human being that I canfind, my brothers, my siters, my cousins, and your whole beautifulcountry ..."

"This second G_d just revealed something to me that I never - Inever dreamt of.. I now understand that G_d's dream for us is fargraeter than our wildest dreams for ourselves.  In my wildestdreams, I never would have dreamt that I would come tosteelworkers in Leningrad nad sing Chasidishe melodies and haveyou honor me with a bouquet of flowers.  But G_d dreamt that, andbehold, I'm here."

Lilian Ritchie:  "I don't care where I will be as long as I have atelephone."  ["Some once aksed Shlomo whether he thought he wouldto to Heaven or Gehenom ..."]{1}
l1

The Futterman family:                 

	"The chussid [from Netura-Carta]  turned to Reb Shlomo andspat in his face.  Reb Shlomo looked him and said, I have theobligation to mekyam the mitzvah of loving a fellow Jew; I have anobligation to love you."      


Chaya Sarah Bleyer offers some simple, honest remarks.

Hilell Goelman says, without giving date, source, nor details,that  R. Shlomo was offered a position as head of LakewoodYeshiva, but turned it down.
       
l2
COMMENT:  Are you sure Heraklitus got his start this way? {2}

l1
Elezar Garner has a story of R. Shlomo walking the last 20 milesto a Reform -- oh heck, gymnasium -- in L.A. because they werecaught in traffic at the onset of Shabbat.  Didn't say if the carand its contents were still there after Shabbat.

Moshe Stepansky tells the 'those two sips of coffee will keep megoing until Meshiach comes' annecdote, attributing it to a visitby Rebbe Reb Shnmelke and the Hafloah to the Mezritcher Maggid.
	I recall hearing R. Shlomo tell this annecdote; I don'trecall details; but the visit was not, in that telling, forShabbat; it may have been for Havdalah.

"Reb Shlomo taught that the Hadhnashof Ordhim can be done anytime,by welcoming someone into your heart."

Dov Peer:
	Once while Reb Shlomo was teaching at Yeshoua's and Emuna'sholy house in Jerusalem, he leaned over and said, 'Brother, I haveso many songs coming to me...bless me that I should have the gutsto wear a headpiece microphone so I can record all the the time.'{ellipisis kc}

N.B.:  There are a lot of ellipses in this issue; but I guessmostly they don't indicated ellision of text; they justreflect the writer's spaced-out approach to existence.

"It's OK brother, open the door and let us in."
	R. Shlomo to a guardian of the shul with a baseball bat.

Rachel Sherman:
	"My mother is Jewish and my father is Catholic," I offered.
	In a gentle voice he asked, "And what are you."

Kuki-Leah Yudelvitz-Strauss:                      
I will flag with (?) words or phrase whose authenticity I'dquestion:

"The following ... is taken from excerpts of an evening in hourhome ... R' Shlomo ... said:
l2
"You see friends, if we want to wipe out hatred from theworld we can not take hatred out of the world.  The onlything we can do is wipe out all the borders.
l1
"The Bobover Rebbe said the greatest laughter is when it is clearto you that you don't have borders.
I would like to share with you one of the many stories that R.Shlomo ztz'l loved to tell:"
l2
The holy KAPISTER was sitting on the sled with his Hasidim. It was so beautiful(?) at night.  So they were all sittingsitting on the sled.  
	You know with horses they don't know how strong theyreally are.  Suddenly they see these wolves are coming.  Youknow wolves go all together.  The moment the horses see thewolves they are all frozen. What can you do?  They justfroze.   So the hasidim sitting on the sled don't know whatto do.  They looked at each other and started saying theShema.  
	You know I didn't know this:   But just like us thewolves have a Rebbe too.  The rebbe wolf went to the sled andthe Rebbe got down from the sled.  He unbuttoned his shirtand the wolf came running and put his paw on the Rebbe'sshirt and his nose on the Rebbe's heart.  He began lickinghis feet.  The Rebbe just stood there.  All of a sudden allthe wolves came running licking his feet.  The Rebbe juststood there.  They took off -- The Rebbe buttoned his shirtand went back on the sled.
	That is normal..{2 dots, kc}  Don't you know that everyhuman being is made in G_d's image, there is no hatred in ourheart.  So the wolf put his nose on the Rebbe's heart to seeif there was hatred in his heart."

----------------------------------------------------------------

R. Shalom Brod:
Presents the following in poem form.  It is not attributed to R.Shlomo, but it sounds like it, and sounds like a direct quote fromTape or Transcript; TRY TO CHECK WITH SHALOM BROD.

	I have to tell you something awesome.  A young lady inFlorida told an unbelieveable story.
	She says:  my sister is married and has a boy of three, andthen she had another baby.  So this boy of three says:  Whenyou're bringing the baby home I have to be the first to talk tohim, and I have to talk to him alone.  Ok, so they had this littleintercom, and they were listening in, so they put the baby in themiddle of the room and this boy of three goes up to him and says: Listen brother, I'm here already three years and I'm beginingalready to forget what G_d is all about, can you please tell me.
	Gevalt, isn't that awesome; what a neshama.
	Gevalt, it's a Baal Shem Tov story.
                    
l2
COMMENT:  Like the man would say, this is cute and sweet but: one should clarify provenance.  Is this R. Shlomo'sretelling, based on something he heard from a lady from aFlorida,  of a Baal Shem story? 
	If, as appears from the publication in Kol Chevre,Shalom Brod wrote it, he's a darned good mimic of R. Shlomo'sstyle; and a smooth seam-maker. 
l1
---------------------------------------------------------------
Adam Atkins, writing in rather the diction of modern poets of theBritish School:

Shlomo asked:  Can the easy route take us into the deep?  [ Arenot 'obstacle angels'] serving us, guing our steps by blockingthem?]  {3}        
----------------------------------------------------------------

Shoshana Gal-Or notes that R. Shlomo passed in parahot ChayeiSarah.
Apparently quoting R. Shlomo:

"Sister Sho' you're the best."

R. Shlomo b. 18 Tevet
R. Elezar Garner:  "Born in Tevet, your sign was the tribe of Dan,the tribe that followed behind all the others in the desert topick up what the others had left behind.  You picked up all thelost neshamas in the spiritual desert of the 60s."  
l2
COMMENT:  That makes an excellent Lubavitch apologia or meaculpa; but the 60s were a spiritual renaissance.  Or onemight say:  those who got indigestion from the spiritualsmorgasbord of the 60s.

Quoting R. Shlomo:
"What do we know.  What do we ever know."

Reflections of Michael Tabor.                        
On playing an acoustic concert, with "no synthetic musicalbacking."
"You are so right Mike, my (?)essence has always been expressed insimplicity(?)."
l2
COMMENT:  That's the truth, say I: I went to the Modi'inSukkot 96 concert & says to Menachem Kallus, all that Shlomorock, but ain't hardly any Shlomo.  He says:  Not so.

Ch. R. Lau (presumably from his speech in Hebrew at the memorialservice at Hechel Shlomo), quoted by Joy Krauthammer:
"Shlomo's soul was from the world of nobility and purity, theworld of awe, of melody and of intimacy with the Divine."          
----------------------------------------------------------------

Dvorah Leah:
"On the way to the college [not identified; ca. 9/94, Boston area,where Dvora Leah teaches 'Old Testament']:  I asked how he wasdoing.  He laughed. 'Ah, Dovrah-Leah, I'm broke like a dog.  Thehomeless brothers of New York are taking up a collection for me.'

	It seems that every erev Shabbos when he was in New York, onhis way to the mikveh, Shlomo went up and down the alleyways ofthe neigbborhood, 
l2
COMMENT:  I doubt it.  Maybe a few side entry-ways. 
First of all, I don't recall alleyways thereabouts.  And theKitzer Shulchan Aruch says, you don't have to chase aftersomeone to give tzadaka.
l3
Hadassah Sasson said:  I've never read the KitzerShulchan Aruch, and hope I never do.
l1
makng sure that everyone has a little something for Shabbos.  So,when the $10 bills turned into fives and ones, the homeless toldhim not to worry.  All he had to do is say the word.  They'd takeup a collection for him."

Barbara Kitai
[It does not sound to me like an authentic quote]:

"as he himself once said to one who did not yet know that he wasto come back to Judaism, 'I'm waiting for you till 2:00 A.M. inthe early morning, in the dark night.  I'm waiting and sittinghere, waiting for you, however long it takes.  I'll never stopwaiting for you, whenever you're ready to come back."

Michael Ruben:  Excerpts from The Teacings of Shlomo Carlebach
Announced for present publication.

The excerpts from that WIP do not seem to be of commericallypublishable quality.  Those exerpts include practically no quotesfrom R.  Shlomo.  Nor can one clearly tell quote from paraphrase,recollection, nor even the author's own remarks.

Says R. Shlomo gave him "dozens of tapes over the years"
Notes 1967 tape from "a very speical Modzitgzer wedding in Israel. It was a treasure of many fantastic Modzitz niggunim..."

"My notes and manuscripts go back 36 years".  So that's to about1960, I suppose.

"Way back in the early 50s, Shlomo had a group called 'Taste andsee that G_d is good".
                                                
The following seems to be a sustained quote from a R. Shlomo tape,but that's not made clear by Michael Ruben's presentation: 
	All ellipses from kc.
l2

At the end of the 6 Day War, a big Modzitz chassid came to meand said, 'You have to be at mau daughter's wedding.'  Thisman had come to Israel from Auchwitz when he was 15 years old... none of his family had survived the war .. .he had nobodyleft ... The Modzitzer Rebbe gave him 50 pounds [at that timea sizeable ammount -- author's note] and said to him, 'Ibless you to be rich, but you will have to swear to me thatyou will be completely honest ...'
	For all his life, this person was the most honest Jew inthe world. .. you know, dealing in jewelry it is very easy tocheat, to steal, yet he ws completely honest and in timebecame a multi-multi-millionaire.  
	So I was here for the wedding.  A few days after thewedding he said to me:  'Shlomo, I want to pay you ... youkow how much I love my daughter, so when I pay you for mydaughter's wedding, forgive me, I have to put on my shtreimeland my shabbosdika kapotte.
	He washed his hands, put on the shtreimel and blackkapotte and a gartel.  
	I want you to know something .. For his daughter'sweding, I really had the privilege to make so much joy andsimahcas.  He said:  do you think that if I gave you 10million it would be enought to express my true gratitude forcreating this incredible simcha.    It won't be enough but Idon't have 10 million to give you either.  I will pay yousomething though, and he walked into his office and came backand told me to hold out my hand and close my eyes ... Ididn't watch him.  I don't know how much he gave me, and I'llnever know, but gevald...did he give me ... it was mamashlike manna from heaven.  
	I want you to know that was in June 1977 and when I cameback to New York after the summer, I put the money in alittle closet and whenever I needed money, I just put my handin and took out a hundred dollar bill.  The last hundreddollar bill I took out was Erev Pesach 1968 which means abouteight months...right!  I never counted the money so I don'tknow how much there was, but I do know that G_d's blessingwas there in the most unbelievable way."

Moish Geller

He said, "There are four types of people in the world:  ONe wholives yesterday, one who lives today, one who lives tomoarrow, andone who lives the day after tomorrow.  What's the day aftertomorrow?  The world's already perfect -- Mashicah has alreadycome.

He said, 'Imagine the Shabbos after Mashiahc has come.  Do we evenhave the vessels to imagine that Shabbos?  So when are we gettingthose vessels?  Don't we have to make Shabbos now as much as wecan the Shbbos afster Mashiach has come?

The first night Rosh Hoshana at the seuda, Reb Shlomo's last inthis world, he said, 'Be careful Yiden.  You can make avoda zoraout of the Torah, you can even make avoda zora out of HaKodesh,b'ruch hu.
	On Yom Kippur before tefilat Neila, his last in this world,he...cried out 'What's wrong with us Yidden.  We should have anopen tent in Central Park and invite the world to join us.'
l2
[Reminds me of the time R. Shlomo was a Mimouma, in SacherPark.  
So I reckon that's just Manhattan's problem.
l3
Heck, Manhattan's problem is that they're in Manhattan. Instead of publishing R. Shlomo's teachings, they boughta brownstone.  ]

When an interviewer asked about his backgorund, he ...responded'Why does everybody ask about my background, why not myforeground.

"Yidden, there's a new light shining in the world everyday.  '' isdemanding new things from us everyday, coming down in a new song.'
                                           
----------------------------------------------------------------

Mordecha Levy (Modi'in) writing of 1970:  "As usual, Shlomo waslate for the flight, and they were holding the plane for him"

Shlomo used to say a tora in the month of Av, from Rebbe Nahcman: There are two opposite forces in the universe.  Gravity pulls youdown.  Magnetism pulls you up.
	What is the curse of the snake to crawl on the earth and eatdust?  Because, it is the master of bringing you down.  Like Esau,its poison fills you with despair.  Tisha b'Av will never be over,the great day will never come, you can't do it, so don't try.      
l2
{Not clear if the 2nd paragraph is a quote from R. Shlomo, orMordechai Levy's paraphrase, or addition.
l1
------------------------------------------------------------------
William Finn:

"Brother, you and I do not disagree."
[R. Shlomo's response to a political criticism, unspecified.]
l2

Like I've said, I was at the Abode-sponsored Ruach Camp, inNew Lebanon NY, during the 1982 war.  R. Shlomo, who wasscheduled to play for the IDF in Lebanon,  and who had oftenplayed for Sar-El [civillian volunteers in the IDF]  said, asmemory serves:  A young man in Israel never looks morehandsome than when he is in uniform.   
l3
It wasn't the most politically acceptable thing to sayto that crowd.  
l4
It's part of the reason I came to Israel, and triedto take most opportunities of attending R. Shlomo'sconcert/lectures.

"Where's your fire, Yidden.   It's Shabbos, and Shabbos is tocelebrate."
[Reproaching a Rabbi from Israel, brought in to serve the Warsawshul, who noted that R. Shlomo was extending shaharit past noon.]

Once I had a setback and I came to Reb Shlomo with my story.  Wetook a walk outside the shul and talked.  Then he reminded me ofthe children's jump rope game called 'High Water, Low Water'. When the rope, held stretched out by one person on each end of therope, is high, you have to go way back to be able to jump in.  So,sometimes we appear to go backwards before we make the next bigleap forwards."

"You never know who the person sitting next to you is.  He's maybea tzasdik, for all you know." 

[Cf. also:  "What do we know.  What do we ever know."]

R. Eugene Lebavoitz &I Anette Labovitz, repr. fomr A Sacred Trust,Stories of Jewish Heritage & History, Issac Nathan Publishing Co.,LA.

Quoting R. Shlomo:  
" I went to see my Rebbe, during the years I was learning in theyeshiva in Lakewood.  Do you know what he told me?  He told me Ishould go out into the world to talk to Jews.  I wasn't sure whathe meant.  I hadn't yet picked up my guitar to compose my firstniggun.  I wasn't sure what I was supposed to talk about to 'Jewsin the world.'
l2
COMMENT:  This sounds editted to me; it's a bit too smooth.

The following passage, which seems to continue R. Shlomo'saccount,  is not enclosed in quotes; probably due only toignorance of a fine point of editorial style, because thereis a closing quote at the last sentence of the excerpt.
	It's a rather depressing account of how R. Shlomo turneda happy prospective bridegroom, about to marry a gentilegirl, into a gloomy frumy.  
	Since it doesn't read like verbatim, I'll assume thatthe published account editted out the depth, complexity &life of R. Shlomo's account; so I'll skip it.

COMMENT:  I do not think brain death is something about whichmistakes are likely to be made, nor from which recover ispossible.
l3
There do seem to be a few fantastic remarks about R.Shlomo cropping up.  Elsewhere, someone writes that hereceived a Ph.d. from Columbia University; and a womenspeaker at a New Age gathering is listed as having been"ordained" by him.

------------------------------------------------------------------

N.B.:  Joe Shoenwald was Rabbi of an Oakland (CA) synagogue, andthere hosted concerts by R. Shlomo.

Yael Levine Katz

Describing Yakar, July 1994 lectures; and noting August, 1994lectues. (R. Shlomo's last.)
Notes Shabbat Chazon w. R. Shlomo.

	He commenced the session with some stories about theRADOSHITSER. [Reb Isachar Baer Radoshitser, (1765-1843) "Ha-SavaHa-Kodosh mi-Radoshitz"].
	He related that:
 
	It was said that the Radoshitser performed miracles in oneday that the Ba'al Shem Tov didn't even do in a year.  Whensomeone needed a refuah shleimah (a complete healing) they wouldgo to the Radoshiteser.  Offiically, Radoshitz and Kotzk wereenemies.  Once, the Kotzker was very sick, and the Rebbetzin wentto Radoshitz.  She didn't want to say who she was, so she saidthat she needed a refuah shleimah for Menachem Mendel ben Esther. The Radoshitser, however, upon recognizing her, said, If you thinkI don't know, why do you come to me, and if you think I know, whydon't you tell me who your are. '  He blessed the Kotzeker,  whohad a refuah shleimah.                                   

	The Radoshitser went on to delinate the source of thediffering schools of thought:  
	The Kotzker wants Yidden to listen to G_d, and I want G_d tolisten to Yidden.              

	Shlomo then offered his interpetation this, stating:
	 'Gevalt.  It's awesome.  In Kotzk the miracle was that hetakes the Yid who doesn't want to be a Yid and makes a Yid out ofhim; and the Radoshitser does a miracle that he makes G_d listento the ineptitude

 of the people.'

	The writer adds:  This story, in some variation is broughtdown in Ha-Sava Ha-Gadol mi-Radoshitz by Yitzhak Alfasi, Tel Aviv1957, pp114-115, based on chassidic books.

	Shlomo then went on to tell what he branded as a 'realhousewife story.':

	Reb Yechiel of Alexander (1828-1894) was sittingin Radoshitz,when a person came with a pure gold plate.  The Radoshitser thentold Reb Yechiel to go into the kitchen and put some food on theplate for him and the rebbetzin.  He and the rebbetzin then atefrom the same plate.                      

	The Radoshitser then related to Reb Yechiel that at thebeginning of his 'career' they were so poor, they didn't even havea plate, or a pot in which to cook.  Once, they had no food forthree days.  Then someone brought a potatoe.  The Radoshiteser'swife borrowed a pot from a neighbor.  The pot itself had belongedto another neighbor.  When the owner of the pot heard to whom ithad been lent, she exclaimed:  What, to those poor people you lentmy pot!'  She ran into the house, poured the potato and water onthe floor, and ran out.  
l2
[She was probably afraid they didn't keep strict kashrut.
I've seen such halachically correct unkindness.
R. Shlomo taught, on Purim:  Woe to the one who won't eat hisneighbor's shelach manot, for fear of inadequate kashrut. (That's input somewhere.)]
l1

	The Radoshitser's wife told her husaband that she couldn'tbear the poverty any longer.  So the Radoshiteser promised herthat they would soon be eating out of golden plates.  
	The Radoshitser suddenly realized that if a person askssomething of G_d but is not answered, that means it isn't timeyet, beause whenver it's time, at the moment he will be answered.

	Shlomo then told how:  
	Once there was no food in the home of the YID Ha-KADOSH(Rabbi Ya'akov Yitzhak of Peshischa, 1766-1814, one of whosedisciples was the Radoshitser) for three days.  On the third dayhis son, Yerachmiel, was crying so much.  The Yid ha-Kadosh said: If you would be as hungry as you sound from your crying, I'm surethere would be food in the house.
	At that moment, he opened his eyes, aned saw one golden rubleunder the table.  He picked up Yerachmiel and asked him 5000 timesfor forgiveness.  He said:  I see you really are as hungry as youwere crying.

	Shlomo proceeded to tell a similar personal story, which tookplace at the beginning of his career, in the early 60s, when hewas in desperate need of some money for his keiruv work.  He hadborrowed $100 from an acquaintance, saying that whenever it wouldbe needed, he should call him up, and he would return it. Sometime later, the person called saying that he was joining theAmerican army the next day, and planned to come by in the morningto collect it.  Shlomo then related how he was up until three inthe morning calling everyone he knew.  He didn't come up, however,with anything.  The next morning this person called to say that hewould not be able to make it, but would be back in 3 months tocollect the money.  The point is, that since the debt wouold notbe returned at that time, therefore it was not meant to be thatShlomo could have obtained the money.

	Shlomo then proceeded with is regular shiur - Tisha b'Av andGeula.
