The bird alighteth not on the spread net when it beholds another bird in the snare. Take warning by the misfortunes of others, that others may not take example from you.
SaadiKeep belly lightly loaded, if mind would wisdom see;For bodies crammed to bursting, make empty souls to be.
SaadiRoam abroad in the world, and take thy fill of its enjoyments before the day shall come when thou must quit it for good.
