Quality is not an act, it is a habit.
Know or listen to those who know.
Only the educated are free.
Always desire to learn something useful.
To know oneself, one should assert oneself.
If you've got a talent, protect it.
Leap, and the net will appear.
Things do not happen. Things are made to happen.
The wise does at once what the fool does at last.
Either you run the day or the day runs you.
Poetry, especially traditional Iranian poetry, is very good at looking at things from a number of different angles simultaneously.
It's very difficult to talk about religion in Iran because religion has gotten so mixed up with politics.
