A lovely face is the solace of wounded hearts and the key of locked-up gates
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
The true disciple should aim to live for the gospel, rather than to die for it
A wrong concept misleads the understanding; a wrong deed degrades the whole man, and may eventually demolish the structure of the human ego
His part is mercy, ours is endless praise
In individuals, insanity is rare; but in groups, parties, nations and epochs, it is the rule
Therefore, it is necessary to be a fox to discover the snares and a lion to terrify the wolves
It is safer to be silent than to reveal one's secret to any one, and telling him not to mention it
To perceive is to suffer
