A man's worth depends upon the nobility of his aspirations.

A calamity does not descend except due to a sin and it is not lifted except with repentance.

A man's behavior is the index of the man, and his discourse is the index of his understanding.

A girl is a good deed and a boy is a bounty. Good deeds are rewarded while people are held accountable for bounties.

He who understands humanity seeks solitude

To fight against one's desires is the greatest of all fights.

The wiser a man is, the less talkative will he be.
