Ali ibn Abi Talib

Ali ibn Abi Talib
Do not be like those on whom advice has no effect and who require punishment to correct themselves.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
No wealth like education and no poverty like ignorance
Ali ibn Abi Talib

Ali ibn Abi Talib
Patience is of two kinds: patience over what pains you, and patience against what you covet.
Ali ibn Abi Talib
