Words of Wisdom

All men are created equal, declared Thomas Jefferson in 1776.
In today's high rolling, money talk world the only time man are equal is when they are dead.



Birth, Old age, Sickness, and Death are four events of suffering which humans cannot escape and cannot control.
Venerable Thich Thanh Tu asked "are you afraid of dying ?"
Dying is not frightening because when one dies, one leaves old age and sickness behind – that means one should be happy for one is finally free from them.



A wise man learns by the mistakes of others, a fool by his own.
Wise men are extinct in today's corrupted dog eat dog world. With money they believe they are God.



The man of wisdom is never of two minds; the man of benevolence never worries; the man of courage is never afraid.



God helps those who help themselves.
They certainly did. To the money of course. Nothing but money is sweeter than honey.



Allah will not give mercy to anyone, except those who give mercy to other creatures.
Wonder if the terrorists hear this one.
