Forgiveness is commendable, but apply not ointment to the wound of an oppressor
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
Either give me more wine or leave me alone
Painting is poetry that is seen rather than felt, and poetry is painting that is felt rather than seen
The past is already gone, the future is not yet here. There’s only one moment for you to live
Forgiveness is the fragrance that the violet sheds on the heel that has crushed it
Every saint has a past, and every sinner has a future
Don't disturb my circles
