You have to walk up each step to get to the top of the staircase. He who knows not and knows not he knows not: he is a fool - shun him. He who knows not and knows he knows not: he is simple - teach him. He who knows and knows not he knows: he is asleep - wake him. He who knows and knows he knows: he is wise - follow him. He who has health, has hope. And he who has hope, has everything. He who governs by his moral excellence may be compared to the Pole star which abides in its place while all other stars bow towards it. He who goes to bed hungry dreams of pancakes. Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. He who fears something gives it power over him. God could not be everywhere and therefore he made mothers. He who asks is a fool for five minutes, but he who does not ask remains a fool forever. He that would learn to pray, let him go to sea. |
