Author of quotes: Alisher Navoi. Page 2

Burning coal without tongs hands will not take
The rock pick is not shattered, will not find diamonds.

You got many worldly goods, but to new not try:
The earth pulls down the good, the Holy good - up.

The blind man who was looking for eternity among the cares of worldly,
A fool who was looking for fidelity among the hearts of human.

Let the distant Shrine, go in a harsh way
Not will - still be grateful to her.

"I cried," you said, and the face - fresh roses.
Flowers, the Queen! I only meant to turn yellow tears.

When greed sounds in words, do not believe
Flattery nor women, nor the machinations
men.

Truthfulness of speech is nice and smooth
But how beautiful the words are truthful
brevity.

Words can death prevent
Words to revive the dead.

All good and all bad, know of God the most high,
So call good good and bad bad call it should.
If you will be wrong and good will be called bad,
The moment when you, my dear friend, to call evil good.

Mortals of their vile actions deserve think its obscene children's pious idea, as poets, who compose bad poems. After all, it is their offspring - children and poems. They are good or bad, but their Creator, they seem to be good. Reasonable do not do that, they do not exaggerate, do not belittle all naturally perceive.

Though a bad news is true, not to bring it to the ears of friends, if someone showed foolish, don't tell him in person about it. Let the enemy will deliver the news first, though the foe makes it unwise to blush for his actions.
Mesnevi:
If the word shame someone carries
Do I need to your its said mouth?
Keep silent, and each would not be in debt
This is the enemy you let the enemy.

Don't be embarrassed from the threats of a scoundrel, don't take for truth the praise of the flatterer. If you do not pay attention to them and not accept their words at face value, then the first will not dare to carry out their purpose, and their actions will stop, and the second his praise in Hulu turn.
Mesnevi:
Only one one is committed to only malice to satisfy,
Another goal is selfish - he wants the good to produce.
And if you do not meet all of these desires them
One sworn enemy becomes, another detractor of yours.

Malevolent with a sour face miserable, no matter what he did, there will always be bad. His temper is a foe, which it disgraces, that cruel enemy, who trashes it. Good-natured with a smile on the face, which quarrels and trouble avoids worldly pleasures and attains the heavenly Paradise.
His happy face is dear to the people, the people admires him. He wins the hearts of humanity, for humanity captivates the soul. They are satisfied and foe and friend, they will not visit him in life disease.
Mesnevi:
His features joy to the weary hearts bear
The words of his fatigue of body removed in a few minutes.
His cheeks like a rose, you will not find fresh
And sweetness of his melodies he is jealous of the Nightingale.

Ignorant - ass, even worse than it, because it can be led anywhere and to ship him anything. The donkey does not claim superiority and wit, he is always humble, whether you will give it is or not. He is the pack slave, but he is a mighty worker.
Ignorant is not a donkey, his soul bad properties acquired. He is proud and arrogant, in his mind - hundreds of depraved dreams. He harbors in his soul, hundreds harmful to people's thoughts, people can expect thousands of trouble. The cry of the ass are unpleasant to hear, but other vices in him. He carries from the mill to your home flour, and that you could make up from her food, he brings you wood. He is always ready to work. The ignorant will get mad if you call him a donkey, and a donkey in any words does not meet the evil.
