When we heard his cry, we lost track of the allotments. And I said: “That man has mixed us up. There really are too many bad apples among us, those who call for help without reason. They can drive one over the edge. It makes some people freeze in place even while standing, while others who are seated can’t even stand up out of fear when they hear such a cry. All in all, it’s not good when somebody cries for help without reason”’ (CSOL III 10:14)
