Commentary for Berakhot 59:3
רב חסדא ורב ששת הוו קאזלי באורחא קם רב חסדא וקא מצלי א"ל רב ששת לשמעיה מאי קא עביד רב חסדא אמר ליה קאי ומצלי א"ל אוקמן נמי לדידי ואצלי מהיות טוב אל תקרא רע.
Rab Hisda and Rab Sheshet were once on a journey together. Rab Hisda stood up and offered the prayer. Rab Sheshet said to his attendant, "What is Rab Hisda doing?" He replied, "He is standing and praying." He said to him, "Raise also me up and I too will pray ; for if thou canst be good, do not allow thyself to be called evil."
