Aesop - soap for the soul

  • Destroy the seed of evil, or it will grow up to your ruin.
  • It is not only fine feathers that make fine birds.
  • Do not count your chickens before they are hatched.
  • Be content with your lot; one cannot be first in everything.
  • It is in vain to expect our prayers to be heard, if we do not strive as well as pray.
  • He that is discontented in one place will seldom be happy in another.
  • The level of our success is limited only by our imagination and no act of kindness, however small, is ever wasted.
  • Our insignificance is often the cause of our safety.
  • We hang the petty thieves and appoint the great ones to public office.
