Story 62-the Rules for Conduct in Life- gulistaan-e-sa.adii

Saadi Shirazi

Who panders to his passions will not cultivate accomplishments and who possesses none is not suitable for a high position.

Have no mercy on a voracious ox

Who sleeps a great deal and eats much.

If thou wantest to have fatness like an ox,

Yield thy body to the tyranny of people like an ass.

Who panders to his passions will not cultivate accomplishments and who possesses none is not suitable for a high position.

Have no mercy on a voracious ox

Who sleeps a great deal and eats much.

If thou wantest to have fatness like an ox,

Yield thy body to the tyranny of people like an ass.
