The body is an outstanding source of strength, the mind an incredible source of intelligence, the heart an uncommon source of might, and the soul a remarkable source of power.
~ Matshona Dhliwayo
The loudest preacher in the world is your conscience, the cleverest is wisdom, the rowdiest is passion, the surest is truth, the purest is love, and the highest is God.
Marry the one who laughs when you laugh, and you are clever; marry the one who cries when you cry, and you are intelligent, but marry the one who does both with you, and you are wise.
Water is soft, but can maneuver any obstacle; be shrewd, and be gentle, and you too will be able to do likewise.
Knowing what to say is sense, when to say it is intelligence, how to say it is wisdom, why and how to say it is enlightenment.
Be wise enough to learn from the past, shrewd enough to capitalize on the present, and clever enough to prepare for the future.
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.
If your greatest wish is to be happy, you are clever; if it is to make others happy, you are virtuous; but if it is to make yourself and others happy, you are wise.
Faith moves mountains, intelligence goes over them, wisdom goes around them, but love levels them.
The ignorant learn from none, the simple learn from some, the intelligent learn from many, but the enlightened learn from all.
Confuse them with your intelligence, baffle them with your excellence, bewilder them with your brilliance, and perplex them with your transcendence.
Cheerfulness will help you draw strangers, cleverness will help gain acquaintances, faithfulness will help you keep companions, and kindness will help you multiply friends.
Intelligence opens the door to the universe, but only wisdom walks through.
Marrying a stupid person is a reflection of your thoughtlessness.Marrying a clever person is a reflection of your intelligence.Marrying a wise person is a reflection of your shrewdness.Marrying a virtuous person is a reflection of your uprightness.
Genius is talent set on fire.
It's bad luck not to believe in luck.
~ R.j. Lawrence
