1 " I’m going to tell you something that will make you very happy: your god is the one true god. Just remember, I am telling this to everyone… and I mean it. "

2 " There is no real distinction between who can and cannot be a teacher. All that matters is that this person should have knowledge of the subject matter, empathy and compassion with others, and, above all, a great sense of humor which is the true mark of wisdom. "
3 " To get a true education, going to school is not enough. School helps students gain knowledge; however, true education is in gaining wisdom, which can only be earned with experience. "
4 " A stupid leader is like a dog who’s in love with his own voice. He will bark incessantly believing that people admire his tune. A wise leader gets his point across in as few words as possible and then gets off the stage. "
5 " A true leader should have the power to begin, the eloquence to communicate, the patience to execute and the wisdom to evaluate. Without one, he remains a slave to he who possesses it. "
6 " Anyone can put a price on knowledge - schools and universities do it all the time, but no one can put a price on wisdom for it can neither be bought nor sold. It should be given and accepted with no ulterior motives. "
7 " Wise people offer their wisdom for free and accept all gifts, for they know that the universe is not giving them gifts, but tools they will need on their road to wisdom. "
8 " It is an insult to a wise person when his motives for guiding are questioned. However, he understands that people aren’t used to free gifts and still helps them anyway. "
9 " It is the duty of every wise person to seek out people with potential and freely guide them on the path of wisdom. By doing so, the wise leaders of the future are born, and the world will have a chance to mend itself. "
10 " A leader, without wisdom, is dangerous. A wise person, without leadership, is useless. But if they work together, they are unstoppable. "
11 " Find that person who will make your whole world tremble with a few words. Apprentice yourself faithfully to him until you can make your own world tremble constantly. "
12 " The relationship between apprentice and mentor is one of the most beautiful and most sacred relationships. In sharing his wisdom with his apprentice, the mentor discovers even more wisdom to share. "
13 " There are only three things which increase when shared: love, wisdom and happiness. "
14 " Knowledge, degrees and diplomas are not for everyone, but wisdom is. True wisdom is in being happy doing what you do best no matter how trivial it may seem as long as it is beneficial to you and to those around you. "
15 " Do not make people feel overly indebted to you. In their quest to restore the illusive balance and wipe out the debt, they will demonize and attribute wrongdoings to you. Instead, give with love and receive with gratitude. "
16 " The universe is an ocean upon which we are the waves. While some decide to surf, others venture to dive. "
17 " When you allow the spirit to speak through you and empower it with love, you will discover things you didn't know you knew. "
18 " Things will happen when they should. When an event is forced, its outcome would be less than optimal. "
19 " To preserve your innocence while acquiring intelligence, that is a true mark of wisdom. "
20 " You cannot reach success only by working hard, you also need to be working smart. "
