Water wrestles great opponents,but has no hands,and tramples great rivals,but has no feet.It slips through our fingers,but can swallow entire towns.Wind also slips through our fingers,but can swallow...
The wolf pounces on the sheep when the shepherd strays.
Wisdom is a teacher,God is its professor.The wise are His students,life is His rod,and eternal life is our reward.
Understanding is to knowledge what the flesh is to the body. Insight is to wisdom what life is to the soul.
Acquaintances are numerous. Friends are few. Enemies many.
I would rather be average and wise than be extraordinary and imprudent.
Faith is receiving a blessing before you have seen it.Wisdom is taking care of the blessing once you have received it.
The wise know much, but pretend to know little; the ignorant know little, but pretend to know much; and the foolish know nothing, but pretend to know all.
Trials are part of the adventure to greatness.
Your greatest wildernesses lead you to your greatest Promised Lands.
Present trials strengthen you for future blessings.
Pain frees you from complacency.Tears free you from sorrow.Weaknesses free you from pride.Adversity frees from boredom.Challenges free you from monotony.
When darkness comes,stars shine.When storms come,plants flourish.When adversity comes,champions triumph.
As water downs ships but upholds leaves,and as fires burn cities but refines gold,so do life's troubles propel the meek to greatnessand the proud to ruin.
When you lead the wise, walk behind them.When you lead the virtuous, walk beside them.When you lead the imprudent, walk in front of them.
Average leaders take you to the mountain.Superior leaders take you up the mountain.Excellent leaders take you to mountaintop.Transcendent leaders take you to the stars.
You learn the value of water when the rivers are dry.You learn the value of light when the winters are prolonged.You learn the value of food when the fields are bare.
Your attitude is your greatest capital in life.
Good deeds are ambassadors from Heaven.
He who has love in his heart has the universe in his hands.
