It is widely regarded as the greatest rap album of all time and stands far above all of Nas's later work. The fact that a 19 year old, could create such an incredible work of art magnifies the importance of youth, and how great wisdom can come from young people. Take this Haggadah as an example. </p>\n\n\n\n<p>\"Odds against Nas are slaughter<br style=\"text-align:center;\" />\nThinkin a word best describin my life, to name my daughter<br style=\"text-align:center;\" />\nMy strength, my son, the star, will be my resurrection<br style=\"text-align:center;\" />\nBorn in correction all the wrong shit I did, he'll lead a right direction\"</p>\n\n<p>-Nas, The World is Yours </p>\n\n<p>Jewish culture and Passover in particular encourages asking questions. The youngest at the Seder usually sings the four questions. In some ways this is a sign of wisdom. Jewish lore teaches that the wisest are those who are the most curious.  </p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>מַה נִּשְׁתַּנָּה הַלַּֽיְלָה הַזֶּה מִכָּל הַלֵּילות</strong></p>\n\n<p>Ma nishtana halaila hazeh mikol haleilot?</p>\n\n<p>Why is this night different from all other nights?</p>\n\n<p><strong>שֶׁבְּכָל הַלֵּילוֹת אָֽנוּ אוֹכלין חָמֵץ וּמַצָּה הַלַּֽיְלָה הַזֶּה כֻּלּוֹ מצה</strong></p>\n\n<p>Shebichol haleilot anu ochlin chameitz u-matzah.
