The roots of education are bitter, but the fruit is sweet.-Aristotle

As soon as man is born he begins to die.-The process of dying starts at birth. This saying reminds us of our own mortality, whatever our age.

“Annadanam maha danam – vidya danam mahattaram | Annena kshanika thripthihi – yavajjivanthu vidyayaa ||”
Feeding is a good philanthropy activity. But educating is much higher. The food will get digested soon. The education will remain the whole life.

A watched pot never boils.-Anything that we wait for with eager attention seems to take a very long time.

A word to the wise is enough.-A very brief warning or explanation is enough for an intelligent person.
