Ants, fighting together, will vanquish the lion
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
Virtue pardons the wicked, as the sandal-tree perfumes the axe which strikes it
The true disciple should aim to live for the gospel, rather than to die for it
No person learned the art of archery from me, who did not in the end make me his target
I am never going to have anything more to do with politics or politicians. When this war is over I shall confine myself entirely to writing and painting
A lovely face is the solace of wounded hearts and the key of locked-up gates
Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing
The nourishment of body is food, while the nourishment of the soul is feeding others.
Integrity is doing the right thing when nobody’s watching, and doing as you say you would do
Be kind whenever possible. It is always possible. And be kinder than is necessary
