A bird does not sing because it has an answer. It sings because it has a song.

A bit of fragrance clings to the hand that gives flowers.

A child's life is like a piece of paper on which every person leaves a mark.

A diamond with a flaw is worth more than a pebble with imperfections.

A gem is not polished without rubbing, nor a man perfected without trials.

A nation's treasure is in its scholars.

Be not afraid of growing slowly, be afraid only of standing still.

Deep doubts, deep wisdom; small doubts, little wisdom.

Dig the well before you are thirsty.

Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.

If heaven made him, earth can find some use for him.

If you are patient in one moment of anger, you will escape a hundred days of sorrow.

If you don't want anyone to know, don't do it.

Not until just before dawn do people sleep best; not until people get old do they become wise.

Teachers open the door. You enter by yourself.

To know the road ahead, ask those coming back.

When you drink the water, remember the spring.

When you have only two pennies left in the world, buy a loaf of bread with one, and a lily with the other.
