Trees bend low with ripened fruit; clouds hang down with gentle rain; noble people bow graciously. This is the way of generous things.
BhartrhariLet us keep a firm grip upon our money, for without it the whole assembly of virtues are but as blades of grass.
BhartrhariIdleness is a great enemy to mankind. There is no friend like energy, for, if you cultivate that, it will never fail.
BhartrhariThe good man shuns evil and follows good; he keeps secret that which ought to be hidden; he makes his virtues manifest to all; he does not forsake one in adversity; he gives in season: such are the marks of a worthy friend.
