Greed takes a person to the watering place but gets him back without letting him drink. It undertakes responsibility but does not fulfill it. Often the drinker gets choked before quenching his thirst. The greater the worth of a thing yearned for, the greater is the grief for its loss. Desires blind the eyes of understanding. The destined share would reach him who does not approach it.

Beautiful people are not always good, but good people are always beautiful.

The worst of our faults is our interest in other people's faults.

Do not let your difficulties fill you with anxiety, after all it is only in the darkest nights that stars shine more brightly.

Let me alone, and go in search of someone else.

Do not hate what you do not know, for the greater part of knowledge consists of what you do not know.

He who busies himself with things other than improvement of his own self becomes perplexed in darkness and entangled in ruin. His evil spirits immerse him deep in vices and make his bad actions seem handsome.
