Hi,
"[When Rabbi Eliezer was dying,] his students said to him: Our master, bless us!
"He said to them: May it be Gd's will that you are as intimidated by heaven as you are by flesh and blood.
"His students said to him: Is that it? [Meaning: Would that be the greatest level we could achieve?]
"He said to them: I wish [you would achieve that much]! You know this, for when a person sins he says, 'I hope people don't see me.'"
(Talmud, Berachot 28b)
Have a great day,
Mordechai
