Overheard # 2
If God ain't fair, why the f*** should I be?
Overheard in a NY city cafe:
There are only 2 things I hate in this world : my life and the thought of my death !
Love, I heard, is indulgence, when conjugated as a union of body and soul, an indication of the lack of self-control.
And so what defines self-control and how does it impact a mans quest for greatness?
Here are some quotes :
->Let self-control be guarded as a treasure;there is no greater source of good for man than that.
->Knowing that self-control is knowledge, if a man should control himself, in the prescribed course, such self-control will bring him distinction amoung the wise, thus leading to greatness.
What I have heard on this subject makes me realise that the actions or inactions of a man are not limited to love. This too being one of the many paths to the greater good, oneself and beyond.
