Dying is as natural as living. Don't trust in fortune until you are in heaven. Don't pray for rain if you are going to complain about the mud. Fear less, hope more; eat less, chew more; whine less, breath more; talk less, say more, and all good things will be yours. He who does not have common sense at age thirty will never have it. If you can't get people to listen to you any other way, tell them it's confidential. If there is no wind, row. If there is light in the soul, there will be beauty in the person. If there is beauty in the person, there will be harmony in the house. If there is harmony in the house, there will be order in the nation. If there is order in the nation, there will be peace in the world. If the prayers of dogs were answered, bones would rain from the sky. Hold a true friend with both your hands. |
