Once you start working on something, don't be afraid of failure, and don't abandon it. People who work sincerely are the happiest.

Too much honesty is not a good thing. Honest people get screwed first and straight trees are cut first.

Education is your best friend. An educated person is respected everywhere. Education beats the beauty and the youth.

Never become friends with those who have a higher or lower status than you. Such relationships won't ever make you happy.

There is some self-interest behind every friendship. There is no friendship without self-interest. This is bitter truth.

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high; Where knowledge is free; Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls; Where words come out from the depth of truth; Where tireless striving stretches its arms toward perfection; Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way into the dreary desert sand of dead habit; Where the mind is led forward by thee into ever-widening thought and action - Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake.

Don't limit a child to your own learning for they were born in another time.

The highest eduction is that which does not merely give us information but makes our life in harmony with all existence.

Depth of friendship doesn not depend upon length of acquaintance.

The butterfly counts not months but moments, and has time enough.
