Do not...!

Assalamualaikum...

Do not say all you know
For he who says all he knows
Often says more than he knows

Do not tell all you hear
For he who tells all he hears
Often tells more than he hears

Do not spend all you have
For he who spends all he has
Often spends more than he has

Do not covet all you see
For he who covets all he sees
Often wants more than he sees

There's this one proverb...

Assalamualaikum...

There's this old Persian proverbs that i wanna share with all you guys. As much as i impressed with the message, i also equally impressed with the poetic and melodic language. Enjoy...

He who knows not,
And knows not that he knows not,
Is a Fool, shun him.

He who knows not,
And knows that he knows not,
Is a Child, teach him.

He who knows,
And knows not that he knows,
Is Asleep, wake him.

He who knows,
And knows that he knows,
Is Wise, follow him
