More quotes by Ali ibn Abi Talib

Ali ibn Abi Talib
Hate no one, no matter how much they've wronged you. Live humbly, no matter how wealthy you become. Think positively, no matter how hard life is. Give much, even if you've been given little. Keep in touch with the ones who have forgotten you, and forgive who has wronged you, and do not stop praying for the best for those you love.

Safety lies in silence. It is easier to rectify what you miss by silence, than to secure what you lose by speaking.
