_Love_ One does not love another if one does not accept anything from him. If you love the children of others, you will love your own even better. _Meekness_ If one knows thee not or a blind man scolds thee, do not become angry. _Mother_ Him whose mother is no more, distress carries off. _Necessity of Effort_ The sieve never sifts meal by itself. _Old Age_ There are no charms or medicine against old age. _Opportunity_ The dawn does not come twice to wake a man. _Patience_ At the bottom of patience there is heaven. Patience is the best of qualities; he who possesses it possesses all things. _People_ Ordinary people are as common as grass, but good people are dearer than the eye. |
