Quotation for Taanit 36:11

אין גוזרין תענית על הצבור בתחלה בחמישי כו' אין גוזרין תענית בראשי חדשים כו': וכמה הויא התחלה רב אחא אמר שלש רבי אסי אמר אחת

The Omnipresent has in His world many bears and lions who can attack us and kill us; the only reason why the Holy One, blessed be He, has handed us over into your hand is that at some future time He may exact punishment of you for our blood'. Despite this he killed them.

Megillat Ta'anit

On the 14th and 15th thereof (are the days of) Purim, on which it is not allowed to mourn.
