Bava Kamma — Daf 100a

בית חייהם את הדרך זו גמילות חסדים ילכו זו ביקור חולים בה זו קבורה את המעשה זה הדין אשר יעשון זו לפנים משורת הדין

ריש לקיש אחוי ליה דינרא לרבי אלעזר אמר מעליא הוא אמר ליה חזי דעלך קא סמכינא א"ל כי סמכת עלי מאי למימרא דאי משתכח בישא בעינא לאיחלופי לך והא את הוא דאמרת רבי מאיר הוא דדאין דינא דגרמי מאי לאו ר' מאיר ולא סבירא לן כוותיה

א"ל לא ר' מאיר וסבירא לן כוותיה

הי רבי מאיר אילימא רבי מאיר (ד' ל' מ' פ' סימן)

דתנן דן את הדין זיכה את החייב חייב את הזכאי טימא את הטהור טיהר את הטמא מה שעשה עשוי וישלם מביתו

הא איתמר עלה אמר רבי אילעא אמר רב והוא שנטל ונתן ביד

אלא הא ר' מאיר דתנן לצבוע לו אדום וצבעו שחור שחור וצבעו אדום ר' מאיר אומר נותן לו דמי צמרו התם קא עביד בידים

אלא הא ר' מאיר דתנן המסכך גפנו על גבי תבואתו של חבירו הרי זה קידש וחייב התם נמי קא עביד בידים

אלא הא ר"מ דתניא מחיצת הכרם שנפרצה

the source of their livelihood;  the way means deeds of lovingkindness; they must walk means the visitation of the sick; wherein means burial, and the work means the law; which they must do means within the margin of the judgment.'  Resh Lakish showed a denar to R. Eleazar who told him that it was good. He said to him: You see that I rely upon you. He replied: Suppose you do rely on me, what of it? Do you think that if it is found bad I would have to exchange it [for a good one]? Did not you yourself state that it was [only] R. Meir who adjudicates liability in an action for damage done indirectly,  which apparently means that it was only R. Meir who maintained so whereas we did not hold in accordance with his view? — But he said to him: No; R. Meir maintained so and we hold with him. But to what [statement of] R. Meir [was the reference]? It could hardly be the one of R. Meir which we learned: If a judge in giving judgment [in a certain case] has declared innocent the person who was really liable or made liable a person who was really innocent, declared defiled a thing which was levitically clean, or declared clean a thing which was really defiled,  his decision would stand, but he would have to make reparation out of his own estate,  for was it not taught in connection with this that R. Elai said that Rab stated  that [this would be so] only where he personally executed the judgment by his own hand?  The reference therefore appears to be the one of R. Meir which we learned: [If wool was handed over to a dyer] to dye it red but he dyed it black, or to dye it black and he dyed it red, R. Meir says that he would have to pay [the owner] for the value of his wool.  But did he not in that case also spoil it with his own hands?  The reference must therefore be to the one of R. Meir which we learned: He who with [the branches of] his vine covers the crops of his fellow renders them proscribed  and will be liable for damages.  But there also did he not do the mischief with his own hands? The reference must therefore be to the one of R. Meir which was taught: 'If the fence of a vineyard [near a field of crops] is broken through,
