The best deed of a great man is to forgive and forget.

In this world, man is a target of death, an easy prey to calamities, here every morsel and every draught is liable to choke one, here one never receives a favour until he loses another instead, here every additional day in one's life is a day reduced from the total span of his existence, when death is the natural outcome of life, how can we expect immortality.

Be afraid of a dignified man when he is hungry and a wicked man when his belly is full.

Man comes from a drop of semen and leaves as a piece of dust. He doesn't know when he came and he doesn't know when he's leaving, yet he walks on the earth thinking he knows everything.

When proven wrong, the wise man will correct himself and the ignorant will keep arguing.

An alert and learned man will take advice from any event.

Allah, the Exalted, gave the angels intellect without desires, He gave the animals desires without intellect, and He gave both to the sons of Adam. So a man whose intellect prevails over his desires is better than the angels, whilst a man whose desire prevails over his intellect is worse than the animals.

A hopeless man sees difficulties in every chance, but a hopeful person sees chances in every difficulty.

Whoever educates himself and improves his own morals & character is superior to the man who tries to teach & train others.
