Chanakya

Chanakya
It is better to live under a tree in a jungle inhabited by tigers and elephants, to maintain oneself in such a place with ripe fruits and spring water, to lie down on grass and to wear the ragged barks of trees than to live amongst one's relations when reduced to poverty.
Chanakya
Evil person causes harm even if treated will.
Chanakya
Rain which falls upon the sea is useless so is food for one who is satiated in vain is a gift for one who is wealthy and a burning lamp during the daytime is useless.
Chanakya
Whores don’t live in company of poor men, citizens never support a weak company and birds don’t build nests on a tree that doesn’t bear fruits.
Chanakya
The Goddess of wealth is unsteady, and so is the life breath. The duration of life is uncertain, and the place of habitation is uncertain but in all this inconsistent world religious merit alone is immovable.
Chanakya
