MORE BYSaadi Shirazi

    Whoever does not listen to advice will have occasion to hear reproof.

    If admonition enters not thy ear

    Be silent when I blame thee.

    Elegant saying 1

    Men void of accomplishments cannot behold those who possess some, without barking like the curs of the bazar on seeing a hunting dog, but dare not come forward; that is to say, when a base fellow is unable to vie with an accomplished man he sets about slandering him according to his own wickedness.

    The envious mean fellow will certainly slander,

    Whose tongue of speech is dumb when face to face.
