Musar su Pirkei Avoth 2:12
רַבִּי יוֹסֵי אוֹמֵר, יְהִי מָמוֹן חֲבֵרְךָ חָבִיב עָלֶיךָ כְּשֶׁלָּךְ, וְהַתְקֵן עַצְמְךָ לִלְמֹד תּוֹרָה, שֶׁאֵינָהּ יְרֻשָּׁה לָךְ. וְכָל מַעֲשֶׂיךָ יִהְיוּ לְשֵׁם שָׁמָיִם:
R. Yossi dice: Lascia che la ricchezza del tuo amico ti sia cara come la tua. E preparati a studiare la Torah. [Non dire: poiché mio padre è un saggio e mio nonno è un saggio, "Torah ritorna alla sua locanda" e non ho bisogno di perseguirla], perché non è un'eredità per te. E lascia che tutte le tue azioni siano per il bene del cielo. [Anche quando ti impegni a mangiare, a bere e alle relazioni coniugali, non essere motivato dal piacere fisico, ma dal desiderio di essere in salute per fare la volontà del tuo Maestro.]
Orchot Tzadikim
He who walks in the path described above serves the Lord, may He Be Blessed, always, even when he is engaged in doing business, even when he lives with his wife, for his intention is to fulfill his bodily needs so that he can serve God, Blessed be He. And even when he sleeps, if he sleeps, so that his mind will be refreshed and his body rested, so that he does not become ill and therefore not be able to serve the Lord, Blessed is He, because of his illness — that sleep with this intent is considered service to God, Blessed be He. And on this subject our Sages commanded and said: "Let all your deeds be for the sake of Heaven (God)" (Aboth 2:17). And this is what Solomon said in his wisdom: "In all thy ways, know Him and He will direct your paths" (Prov. 3:6).

And even though there is no immediate likelihood of damage, since it may potentially lead to this, he will remove it and dispose of it. Our sages, of blessed memory, said: "the possessions of your fellow should be as precious to you as your own" (Avot 2:12).
