("So too, the evil inclination has no remedy except through the words of Torah alone, which are like fire, as it is said: 'If your enemy is hungry, give him bread to eat.'" - Minor Tractates, Avot de-Rabbi Natan, Version A, Chapter 16. Also: "A Torah scroll that is not corrected for its spelling errors can be fixed and emended... but if an error was made... it is invalid, and there is no remedy except to remove the entire page in which the error occurred." - Maimonides, Book of Love, Laws of Tefillin, Mezuzah and Torah Scroll, Chapter 8, 3, 228. Also: "A city such as this has no remedy except by fire! So said my sister-in-law Bracha and poured all her rage and the bitterness of her words on the city of London in a single breath, and immediately she felt relief." - Sholem Aleichem, 'London Has No Remedy but Fire', 211. Also: "And your soul is struggling to depart, and you have no remedy except to jump to the table and dip a slice of warm challah in that pot roast and revive your soul." - H. Hazaz, 'The First Generations', 35)
