My dad, he always said, “Surround yourself with people smarter than you.”[to Madelyn]
Lambs go to slaughter. A man, he learns when to walk away.
It’s a lot easier to knock something down than it is to lift it up.
In the face of the inevitable, good leaders should always choose mercy. In the future, you will be wise to do the same.[to Ciri]
A rotten tree trunk appears strong until the storm breaks it in two.
A fire needs wind to spread.
You try to climb a mountain, some people are gonna fall off.
You don’t leave the doors open if you want to keep the wolves out.
You cannot invite a serpent into the garden and be surprised when it slithers on the ground.
You can’t tend the garden without pulling a few weeds.
You can’t plant a seed without getting your hands dirty.
Wisdom means nothing if it’s not acted on. Wisdom is justified by all her works.
