Certainly I want to have a family of my own one day... In order to find a wife we call the "shatran"... there's a whole system I'm not quite familiar with.

How will I know if the girl is right for me? From what I gather, I guess, when the time comes, you'll feel it... We hold that the soul of each person, it's kinda, split in half, so there's the man and the woman. So there's like two halves of a soul, and when they come together, it becomes one soul.

We Jewish people have been in exile for two thousand years now, so I don't think I could personally "fix" that... But every good deed could tip the scale, so... if I could, I'd like to bring the Messiah, as soon as possible.

I was taught that God is constantly creating the world.

If I could be someone else, I'd probably be the Prime Minister of Israel. Because the Prime Ministers who are in Israel usually don't do the best moves, and they usually do things that harm the country, What would I do?. Basically I would try and protect the country a little more, because, you know, there are constantly guys getting killed in Israel from Arabs and everything.

Of course, in my fantasies, I dream of becoming the world's greatest baseball player.

I go to school at the Lubovitch Boys High School of Chicago. I enjoy it immensely. You're part of just one force. You get an understanding of who you really are. It's just a very, very enjoyable and meaningful experience.

What's it like to be a Hassidic Jew? Hassidim means that every single part of your life is for the purpose of better serving God, which could be done through many ways.

My wish is basically to become a rabbi–you have a magnificent, unbelievably huge, humongous, magnificent synagogue, with thousands of people constantly coming to Jewish programs...
