There was one outstanding Talmid Chochom who was close to the Gri"z (R' Yitzchak Zev Soloveitchik). He came to the Gri"z after he got married and said, "Bei mir iz nisht gut" (It's not good with me), and the Gri"z replied, "where is it written that it needs to be good?"
A very great man, from the first rank of the gedolei hador related [to הגרמ"ש]: In his youth, he had very mischievous children, and once an old uncle, a respectable Jew, came to visit him and found him sitting and learning while the children were climbing on him. The uncle said to him, how will they repay you for all that you do for them? He said to him that they will repay me with the pleasure that I will have from them. After some time, that great man was with the Gri"z and told him the dialogue. The Gri"z responded that in his eyes it is close to heresy. We do not raise children in order to have nachas. If we are fortunate enough to have nachas it is a separate gift from the Holy One, Blessed be He. We deal with and toil for the children because that is how the Holy One, Blessed be He, established the creation. עולם חסד יבנה - a world of kindness will be built.
