Reb Moshe of Kobrin zt'l and some of his chassidim were once guests at the home of the daughter of Rebbe Boruch'l of Mezhibuzh zt'l. At the end of their stay, they were in a rush to leave. The chassidim were busy packing up and preparing to leave. At this time, Rebbe Moshe of Kobrin asked the rebbetzin to repeat something she heard from her father, Rebbe Boruch'l of Mezhibuzh. She replied, "My father would often say, 'A Yid tur zich nisht yugen,' a Jew shouldn't rush. He mustn't ever be in a confused, rushed, panicky state. He should always be calm and patient." Upon hearing that, Rebbe Moshe Kobriner instructed his chassidim to stop rushing. Everything will work out well. The atmosphere in the home changed immediately. They calmed down, and it took them quite a while before they left the house.
