Good Behavior Wins Even An Enemy.

A Man Attains Greatness By His Merits, Not Simply By Occupying An Exalted Seat. Can We Call A Crow An Eagle (garuda) Simply Because He Sits On The Top Of A Tall Building.

He Who Befriends A Man Whose Conduct Is Vicious, Whose Vision Impure, And Who Is Notoriously Crooked, Is Rapidly Ruined.

What Good Is A Cow That Neither Gives Milk Nor Conceives? Similarly, What Is The Value Of The Birth Of A Son If He Becomes Neither Learned Nor A Pure Devotee Of The Lord?

It Is Narual For Enemy To Attack On The Weaker Side Of The Adversary.

The Man Who Remains A Fool Even In Advanced Age Is Really A Fool, Just As The Indra-varuna Fruit Does Not Become Sweet No Matter How Ripe It Might Become.
