ஆயிரம் பொன்மொழிகள்! (81-110)

ச. நாகராஜன்

சில பொன்மொழிகளின் தொடர்ச்சி…! (From my collection!)

81. Way – Will

Find a way or make one. The world always listens to a man with a will in him.   – Mandoc

Word – Kind

Start some kind word on its travels; there is no telling where the good it may do will stop.  – Talmage

Wisdom

What is the part of wisdom? To dream with one eye open; to be detached from the world without being hostile to it; to welcome fugitive beauties and pity fugitive sufferings, without forgetting for a moment how fugitive they are.      – G. Santayana

Man – Wisdom – God – Charm

Man could direct his ways to plain wisdom, and support his life by tasteless food; but God has given us wit and flavour, and laughter and perfumes to enliven the days of man’s pilgrimage and to “charm his painted steps over the burning mart.”     – Sydney Smith

Will – Intellect

For though with judgement we on things reflect, our will determines not our intellect. – Edmund Waller

Women

Regard the society of women as a necessary unpleasantness of social life, and avoid it as much as possible. – Leo Tolstoy

Writer

It is the glory and merit of some men to write well, and of others not to write at all.  – La Bruvers

Wife

Begging and death are better than living with a bad wife.  – Sukra Niti

Mind

Cultivate not only the cornfields of your mind, but the pleasure grounds also.  Whateley

90. Mind

Uncultivated minds are not full of wild flowers, like uncultivated fields. Villainous weeds grow in them and they are the haunt of toads.  

Mind – Power – Cheerfulness

It lies in our own power to attune the mind to cheerfulness.

Mind

The truest state of mind, rested in, becomes false.   – Emerson

Habit

The diminutive chain of habit is scarcely felt till it is too strong to be broken.   Dr. Johnson

Happiness

No human being can come into this world without increasing or diminishing the sum total of human happiness, not only of the present, but of every sub-sequent age of humanity.  – Elihu Burritt

Happiness

Happiness is a thing to be practiced like the violin.    – Lord Avebury

Great men

The great saints, the heroes, the pioneers, the artists have rarely been ‘nice people’. – Winifred Holtby

Great men

It is a wonderful thing that here and there in this hard, uncharitable world there should be left a few rare souls who think no evil. This is the great unworldliness.   – H. Drummond

Grief

Don’t grieve more than a shilling’s worth over a lost shilling.

Grief – Joyousness

We have not met grief aright if we come out of it with a loss of joyousness.  –   J.R. Miller

100. Good Man

It is surprising how much good a man may do in the world if he allows others to take the credit for it.

Seeing – Tears

There’s no seeing one’s way through tears.  – W.G. Benham

Fate

Hundred arrows do not hurt the quarry, if not fated to die; but when the how comes, a blade grass is enough to kill.                                                                                                                   – Hitopadesha

Peace of Mind – Present

Don’t destroy your peace of mind by looking back. Live in the present. Enjoy the present.

Thinking

Those who think nobly are noble.    – Berkeley

மேலான சிந்தனைகள் மேவி வருவோரே                                மேலோரா கின்றார் விரைந்து                     – உலக உள்ளங்கள் (90) –  

                                                  ஜெகவீரபாண்டியனார்

Thought

Thought is all light, and publishes itself to the universe.   – Emerson

ஒளிமயமே எண்ணம் உலகிற் கதுவே                               வெளியாகி நிற்கும் விரைந்து                  – உலக உள்ளங்கள் (167) –  

                                                  ஜெகவீரபாண்டியனார்

Thought – Deed

Our thoughts are like to tiny seeds

That soon must blossom into deeds.     – A.E. Anderson

எண்ணம் விதையாகும் இயல்செயல்கள் எல்லாமவ்                      வண்ணம் வளர்ந்து வரும்                      – உலக உள்ளங்கள் (93) –  

                                                  ஜெகவீரபாண்டியனார்

Frugality – Industry

Frugality is a fair fortune; and habits of industry a good estate.     – Franklin

சீரான செட்டு சிறந்த செல்வம்; செய் முயற்சி                               நேரா நிலைத்த நிதி.                              – உலக உள்ளங்கள் (360) –  

                                                  ஜெகவீரபாண்டியனார்

Patience

Patience is bitter, but its fruit is sweet.     – Rousseau

பொறுமை கடுமை பொறையின் பயனோ                           இருமையும் இன்பம் தரும்.                       உலக உள்ளங்கள் (98) –  

                                                  ஜெகவீரபாண்டியனார்

110. Woman

It is better to be a woman than be subject to a woman.  

பெண்ணேவல் செய்தொழுகும் ஆண்மையின் நாணுடைப்                 பெண்ணே பெருமை யுடைத்து.                    உலக உள்ளங்கள் (901)

                                                  ஜெகவீரபாண்டியனார்
