"Be like a rose that perfumes the hands of those who crush it" - The first ever proverb that I fell for.

"Wise is a man who adapts to the ways of the world, Fool is the man who expects the world to adapt to his ideals, but then, every change that is to happen in this world solely rests on that fools shoulders"

"Wise is a man who learns from his mistakes a fool is a man who doesn't learn from others mistakes"

“Sometimes when I reflect back on all the wine I drink I feel shame. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the vineyards and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn’t drink this wine, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, “It is better that I drink this wine and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver.”

and naked I will depart.
