GREAT THOUGHTS-38



The world

is a moral

and

spiritual

gymnasium.

TRUE EDUCATION

It is no use

giving children just education.

You should give them joy.

If you want children to grow well,

try and give them as much joy as possible.

Merely giving the so-called education

is like putting

manure at the roots of a tree

which is

without a sunlight.

The sun is strong,

the rain is plentiful

and i

in spite of the goats,

the forests grow.

Likewise,

in spite of errors of parents and teachers,

children flourish.”

ADD CHARM

What adds to the charm
of one’s character?

“Small kindness,
small courtesies,
small considerations
habitually practiced in our
social interaction,

give

a grater charm

to the character

than

the display of

great talents

and

accomplishments.”

SWEET PATIENCE

Sweet

are

the fruits

of patience.

VACATIONS

VACATION & Historic Places

Everyone loves to go on vacation! People visit different places and do different things when on a vacation. People on a holiday, travel to distant parts of the world to see great buildings or other works of art, to learn new languages, to experience new cultures, to participate in or watch sports, to taste new cuisines and for many more different reasons.

Historical or heritage tourism is a branch of tourism oriented towards the cultural heritage of the location where tourism is occurring. Culture and history has always been a major object of travel. Cultural heritage includes buildings and historic places, monuments, artifacts etc., that are considered worthy of preservation for the future. These include objects significant to archaeology, architecture, science or technology of a specific culture. Smaller objects such as artworks and other cultural masterpieces are collected in museums and art galleries. The tourists interested in historical travel seek adventure, culture, history, archaeology and interaction with local people. This type of tourism involves visiting historical sites, buildings, museums etc. The overall purpose is to gain an appreciation of the past.
Cultural tourism includes tourism in urban areas, particularly historic or large cities and their cultural facilities such as museums and theatres. It can also include tourism in rural areas showcasing the traditions of indigenous cultural communities (i.e. festivals, rituals), and their values and lifestyle. Many historic places have shows where the historical events have been dramatized to make them more entertaining. Every place in the world has a history but some places are more known for their historical past like Europe, Chine, India etc. These places have monuments and artifacts dating back to hundreds of centuries and they draw a huge number of tourists.

TIME & MONEY

when the times were not hard

and

money not scarce?

FAULT FINDING

ATTITUDE

Roses

have thorns,

and

a silver fountain

has mud.

GOOD SUPERVISION

GOOD SUPERVISION

is

the art

GREAT THOUGHTS-36

SILENCE

Silence

is always golden,

but

sometimes it is guilt.

GREAT THOUGHTS-35

WANDERING MIND
You should not allow
mind
to wander about
as it would become so.

A HAPPY MARRIAGE

A happy marriage

is the union of

two good forgivers.

Best advice to unmarried girls:

Marry someone you don’t mind adjusting to.

God tailors the wife to fit the husband,

not the husband to fit the wife.

Good Wives

are

young men’s mistresses,

companions for middle age,

and old man’s nurses.

KNOW IT

If a man is worth knowing at all,

he is worth knowing well.

Nothing great was ever achieved

without

enthusiasm.

Pardon all men,

but never thyself.

To be good

and

to do good

is

the whole of religion,

other things are secondary.

He

who

has

never hoped

can

never

despair.

CUNNINGNESS

Cunningness

is

a short blanket.

If you pull it over your face,

you expose your feet.

MAN AND WOMAN

It is that togetherness that binds

man and woman

and

give both a respectable place in the world.

“Man cannot degrade woman

without himself falling into degradation.

He cannot elevate her

without

at the same time

elevating himself.”

GREAT THOUGHTS-31

KNOWLEDGE AND WISDOM

“Knowledge

is

a process

of

piling up facts;

wisdom

lies in their

simplification.”

GREAT THOUGHTS-30

He that boasts

of his own knowledge

proclaims his own ignorance,

says a German proverb.

To be conscious

that you are ignorant

is a great step to knowledge and intelligence,

Martin H. Fischer says.

The infallible man

is

yet to be born.

Some so called
open minds
should be closed
for repairs.

The man
who gets the most of it
may not get the best of it.

CHEERFULNESS

Exactness in little duties

is

a wonderful source

of

cheerfulness.

EFFICIENCY



Efficiency means


accomplishing more


with


less exertion


and


less expense.

IMPORTANCE OF MONEY



Money can buy a bed;

not the sleep

Money can buy medicine;

not relief
Money can buy books;

not the knowledge

Money can buy the services of a doctor

but not health

Money can buy slaves

not the braves

Money attracts flatterers and sycophants

not true friends

MEMORY OR UNDERSTANDING

Anyone

who

in discussion

relies upon authority uses,

not his understanding,

but rather his memory.
Leonardo Da Vinci.

A LEADER'S RESOLUTION

I would rather be first

in a little Iberian village

than

second in Rome.
Julius Caesar

VALUE OF VOICE

Nothing that I can do


will change the structure


of the universe.


But may be,


by raising my voice


I can help the greatest of all causes


– goodwill-


among men and peace on earth.

Albert Einstein

ADAPTABILITY

It is not the strongest

of the species that survive,

nor the most intelligent,

but the one most responsive to change,

Charles Darwin

We should be too big

to take an offense and too noble to give it.

ABILITY

Big jobs usually go to the men

who prove their ability

to outgrow their small ones.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

CHARACTER

Our character is basically
a composite of our habits.
Because they are consistent,
often unconscious patterns,
they constantly, daily,
express our character.
Stephen R. Covey

THE GREAT INDIAN LEADERS

You cannot shake hands

with clenched fist.
Indira Gandhi

The purely agitation attitude

is not good enough

for a detailed consideration of a subject.

Jawahar Lal Nehru

If you don’t ask you don’t get.
Mahatma Gandhi

ANGER

Whatever is begun in anger,
ends in shame.
Benjamin Franklin

When angry, count four;

when very angry, swear.
Mark Twain


Anger and intolerance

are the twin enemies

of correct thinking.

Few, save the poor, feel for the poor.
Keep strong, if possible.

In any case, keep cool.

Have unlimited patience.

Never corner an opponent.

And always assist him to save his face.

GREAT THOUGHTS-16

I figured that if I said it enough,
I would convince the world that
.I really was the greatest
Great Muhammad Ali

GREAT THOUGHTS-15

Always continue the climb.

It is possible for you

to do whatever you choose,

if you first get to know who you are

and are willing to work with

a power that is greater than ourselves

to do it.
Oprah Winfrey

It is best to be yourself,

GREAT THOUGHTS-11

On a level plain,
simple mounds look like hills,
and the insipid flatness
of our present bourgeoisie is
to be measured by the attitude
of “great intellectuals.”
- Karl Marx

IMPRESSIONS SAVE US


Harold,


like the rest of us,


had many impressions


which saved him the trouble of distinct ideas.



- George Eliot

REVEALATION

They come into being
not through demonstration
but through revealation,
through the medium of powerful personalities.
- Albert Einstein.
