He who gives up shyness in monetary dealings, in acquiring knowledge, in eating and in business, becomes happy.

One whose knowledge is confined to books and whose wealth is in the possession of others, can use neither his knowledge nor wealth when the need for them arises.

The wise man should restrain his senses like the crane and accomplish his purpose with due knowledge of his place, time and ability.

That man who is without religion and mercy should be rejected. A guru without spiritual knowledge should be rejected. The wife with an offensive face should be given up and so should relatives who are without affection.

What is important is not the quantity of your knowledge but its quality. You can know many things without knowing the most important.
