Words of Wisdom

من الحكم

Shakespeare said: A good reputation is the jewel of the soul. He who steals my money steals a trifling thing — the money was mine and became his; but he who steals from me my good reputation steals something that does not enrich him, yet leaves me poor.

— A man's fall is not failure... failure is to remain where he fell.

— Those who want no superiority and no arrogance, who want no corruption and no tyranny over people, but want the peace of humanity and its good, the welfare of mankind and the happiness of nations — they are, in truth, the great.

— Your personal worth is measured in proportion to the faithfulness with which you do the small things.
