You are a product of your mind, a result of your thoughts, and a consequence of your actions.

If the sky never grew dark, we would not be able to clearly see the stars.

You can curse the sun a thousand times, but cannot keep it from shining, even for a day.

Learn from acquaintances, and you are clever; from friends, and you are intelligent; from enemies, and you are shrewd; but learn from all, and you are wise.

Don’t judge a tree by its size, but by its fruit.

The loveliest roses sometimes bear the ugliest thorns.

It is in vain to chase two birds at the same time, even if you have a thousand legs.

See what love sees. Hear what love hears. Say what love says. Do what love does.

A shrub that bears fruit deserves to be watered more than a tree that does not.
