“How we extol love and treat hate like blight, yet love and hate are ingredients of life. We need hate to erase things unpleasant; sans hate, of evil we’re an assistant. So with all of the negatives in life, they’re there to preserve the beauty of life, like don’t you dare mess with anyone’s pride, and you’ll be met with outrage they won’t hide.”
“If nation is rich, to lick poverty— “satisfy people’s basic needs for free.” Otherwise, the best the nation can do— “create jobs for all without much ado.”
“Houses are burning like second to none. Stop the fire first before building new ones, lest the fire will, too, burn the new ones up: “A never-ending task of building up.” Greed is driving many to poverty. Stop the greed first before saving any, for the greed is there making new ones up: “A never-ending task of saving up.”
“Do set your goal—to move with clarity. Set a goal—that suits your ability. Raise the goal—with your rising energy. Always move with goal—lest you move slowly!”
“When wise men talk on dope, just look at them; but when it’s the junkies who do, hark them. When rich men talk of hunger, just glance at them; but when it’s the dirt-poor who do, mark them. They who are fully engaged in the field are far truer than great minds off the field. The first are like Martians explaining Mars; the second, like men lecturing on Mars.”
“Life is a pad of paper and a pen: “We pen our life like one made in heaven.” Sadly though, some don’t have the pen with them: “It’s others doing the writing for them.”
“If you hate my color, please hold your sword! Not my fault, I just got it from our Lord! I bet if it’s you who has my color, you’ll take it, too, with proudest of ardor!”
“Knowing the right numbers can open safe. Knowing the trap door can pave for escape. Knowing the route can reach destination. Knowing God’s way can lead to salvation. “Knowledge is Power,” none could be greater; so easy to acquire, they’re everywhere. From hearing, reading, seeing, you’ll get them, but they’re nothing if you don’t apply them.”
“In due time, you really must go full-time and give your all out care to your goldmine. A part-time business brings part-time income, a full-time business brings full-time income.”
“Man is amazingly intelligent; all those inventions are just wonderment. It seems there’s nothing that man cannot do; what his mind can conceive, his hands can do. Alas, how it befuddles me no end that with all his genius, man cannot mend this perennial problem called poverty ever getting so wide and so deathly.”
“If you dream of success as if you’re there, it keeps you inspired but yet a dreamer. Rather think of all pains you must weather, for success always comes to the strugglers.”
“You fell into a well, a stranger came; he helped you out without giving his name. Li’l did you know, he’s of different faith; the hell you care, for you the man was great. If you, just a human, could think that way, how much more God whose goodness we can’t weigh. God cares not of what religion we’re part, what counts is the purity of our hearts.”
“Would that you die than steal, or steal than die?” “Would that you tell your true past, or just lie?” It’s your values on them that will decide; it’s values that on the world bring divide.”
“When you work to remain afloat in life, your work takes the form of a “Breath of Life.” When you work to bring to others a life, your work takes the form of a “Bread of Life.” When you work to buy the good things in life, your work takes the form of a “Purse of Life.” When you work to gain from destroying life, your work takes the form of a “Curse of Life.”
“Don’t move about in life so unknowing of the very reason you’re existing. For as long as you cannot define it, yours a moving body without spirit.”
“If you don’t know how to manage money, big money can lead you to poverty; but if you know how to manage money, little money can lead you to plenty.”
“The world is just a case-to-case basis, no single rule of law can it all please. There are countless cultures to contend with, all sorts of manners, likes, dislikes, and breeds. A sweet smile—to some can be an insult; a holy touch—be rape to some adults. A sincere help—to some is intrusion; a simple dissent—a revolution.”
