Quotes by Matshona Dhliwayo

Your ears hear much,but your heart hears more.Your eyes see much,but your mind sees more.Your toungue says much,but your soul says more.Your feet travel much,but your imagination travels more.Your hands do much,but your mind does more.

A mansion begins with one brick.A forest begins with one tree.A harvest begins with one seed.An ocean begins with one drop.A friendship begins with one gesture.A fire begins with one spark.A revolution begins with one idea.

He who is deaf to wisdom is blind to good.

When the lion is wounded do not stroke its mare.

Sow wisdom today, and you will reap success tomorrow.

If you chase a butterfly, it will escape;if you feed it, it will come.

Wisdom frees men, even if they are in prison.

Learning is intelligence.Knowing is understanding.Practicing is wisdom.Teaching is virtue.

There is no sharper spear than wisdom.There is no larger shield than faith.There is no better fortress than truth.There is no greater strength than hope.There is no higher power than love.

You may have a small body,but great strength.You may have an ordinary mind,but great wisdom.You may have a wounded heart,but great courage.You may have a weary soul,but great love.

A little wisdom can lead to great understanding.A little curiosity can lead to great discoveries.A little talent can lead to great achievements.A little love can lead to great virtue.A little faith can lead to great miracles.A little opportunity can lead to great success.

Knowledge will give you strength,but wisdom will give you power.Talent will give you respect,but genius will give you honor.Pleasure will give you happiness,but joy will give you contentment.Strength will give you fortitude,but love will give you dominion.Courage will give you victory,but faith will give you greatness.Virtue will give you the world,but God will give you universe.

You have two eyes,but the discerning have three.You have two ears,but the wise have four.You have two hands,but the enlightened have five.

Wisdom lies at the edge of intelligence.Joy lies at the edge of happiness.Faith lies at the edge of boldness.Love lies at the edge of kindness.God lies at the edge of righteousness.

He who has foresight has more than two eyes.

Truth is the highest knowledge.Faith is the highest courage.Reason is the highest wisdom.Love is the highest virtue.

Love, no matter how small, begets kindness.Joy, no matter how small, begets cheerfulness.Wisdom, no matter how small, begets intelligence.Faith, no matter how small, begets persistence.Genius, no matter how small, begets excellence.

Joy turns tears into laughter.Hope turns mourning into gladness.Wisdom turns tragedy into fortune.Faith turns defeat into triumph.Love turns enmity into friendship.

Letting go of sorrow gives you enough strength to carry happiness.Letting go of anger gives you enough strength to carry kindness.Letting go of fear gives you enough strength to carry hopefulness.Letting go of resentment gives you enough strength to carry gratefulness.Letting go of disappointment gives you enough strength to carry joyfulness.Letting go of avarice gives you enough strength to carry contentedness.

Morality cannot replace goodness.Knowledge cannot replace wisdom.Fame cannot replace honor.Pleasure cannot replace contentment.Passion cannot replace love.
