By Aesop
It’s not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters.
What goes around comes back around.
Karma is a good judge of character, and you, my friend, are f*cked.
When a bird is alive, it eats ants. When bird dies, ants eat it. One tree can be made into million matchsticks but only one matchstick is enough to burn million trees. Circumstances can change at any time. You may be powerful today but time is more powerful than you.
Getting a friend or enemy happens through some karma. If your time is good, even an enemy acts like a friend, and if your time is not good, even a friend acts like an enemy.
You will not be punished for your anger, you will be punished by your anger.
The people who fight fire with fire, usually end up with ashes.
The axe forgets, but the tree remembers.
Realize that everything connects to everything else.
What you do not want done to yourself, do not do to others.
What seems to be coming at you is really coming from you.
Karma and justice are the best friends.
We are made of all those who have built and broken us.
Our nuclear weapons are meant purely as a deterrent against nuclear adventure by an adversary.
You can change friends but not neighbours.
We seldom think of what we have, but always of what we lack.
We can come to look upon the deaths of our enemies with as much regret as we feel for those of our friends, namely, when we miss their existence as witnesses to our success.
Politeness is to human nature what warmth is to wax.
The first forty years of life give us the text; the next thirty supply the commentary on it.
Scholars are those who have read in books, but thinkers, men of genius, world-enlighteners, and reformers of the human race are those who have read directly in the book of the world.
