The true disciple should aim to live for the gospel, rather than to die for it
Persian poet and prose writer of the medieval period. He is recognized for the quality of his writings and for the depth of his social and moral thoughts.
Better is the sinner who hath thoughts about God, than the saint who hath only the show of sanctity
An enemy to whom you show kindness becomes your friend
O Contentment, make me rich! for without thee there is no wealth
Ants, fighting together, will vanquish the lion
Virtue pardons the wicked, as the sandal-tree perfumes the axe which strikes it
No person learned the art of archery from me, who did not in the end make me his target
Beauty is no quality in things themselves: It exists merely in the mind which contemplates them; and each mind perceives a different beauty
Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all
Business is a money game with few rules and a lot of risk
I'm not upset that you lied to me, I'm upset that from now on I can't believe you
The best deed of a great man is to forgive and forget
It is true that we are made of dust. And the world is also made of dust. But the dust has motes rising
