SOME USEFUL PROVERBS FOR STUDENT LIFE

EDUCATION HAS ALWAYS PLAYED AN ESSENTIAL ROLE IN THE PROGRESS

OF HUMANITY. AND THE TRANSITION OF KNOWLEDGE HAS BEEN A NOBLE DEED. THE PROVERB SAYS TRUE: “A

CANDLE LOSES NOTHING LIGHTENING ANOTHER CANDLE”.

AND WHILE ONE’S CANDLE IS LIGHTENED HE STARTS HIS TRAVEL FOR MORE AND MORE KNOWLEDGE. HIS ROAD IS HARD AND LONG AND STANDING AT THE VERY

BEGINNING ONE SHOULD REMEMBER: “A JOURNEY OF A THOUSAND MILES STARTS

WITH A SINGLE STEP”.

AND NO STEP, NO MOMENT OF THIS JOURNEY CAN BE WASTED IN VAIN, HE SHOULD STRIKE WHILE THE IRON IS

HOT. “CARPE DIEM” SAID THE ANCIENT. “SEIZE THE MOMENT”.

IT IS BETTER FOR THE SCHOLAR TO COUNT ONLY ON HIMSELF, BECAUSE IF YOU WANT TO DO THE THING RIGHT,

BETTER DO IT YOURSELF.

ONLY HALF OF THE KNOWLEDGE COMES FROM BOOKS. ANOTHER IS GIVEN BY LIFE ITSELF. THEORY IS GOOD. BUT PRACTICE IS ESSENTIAL. IT IS ALWAYS ONE THING

TO READ ABOUT THE DRAGONS AND ANOTHER TO MEET THEM.

AND ACCORDING TO A CHINESE PROVERB IF SOMEONE WANTS TO BECOME A DRAGON HIMSELF HE

SHOULD EAT MANY LITTLE SNAKES. REPETITION AND PRACTICE MAKE PERFECT.

SOMETIMES ALL THE EFFORTS IN STUDIES CAN SEEM USELESS AND A STUDENT HAS TO LEARN TONES OF

MATERIALS ON SUBJECTS NOT INTERESTING FOR HIM. BEING BORED IS DANGEROUSLY CLOSE TO GIVING UP. BUT THE OPTIMISM SHOULD NOT BE

LOST. IF LIFE DEALS YOU LEMONS MAKE LEMONADE.

AND BY THE WAY HARDSHIPS MAKE A PERSON MORE CONFIDENT. AS A

FAMOUS GERMAN PHILOSOPHER ONCE SAID; “THAT WHICH DOES NOT KILL US

MAKES US STRONGER”.

ANOTHER THING ONE OUGHT TO KEEP IN MIND IS THAT STUDY IS NEVER

OVER. A WISE PERSON STUDIES ALWAYS BECAUSE IT'S BETTER TO

TRAVEL HOPEFULLY THAN TO ARRIVE.

AND FINALLY IT SHOULD NEVER BE FORGOTTEN THAT A GOOD MIND

POSSESSES A KINGDOM. EACH PIECE OF KNOWLEDGE IS IMPORTANT AND USEFUL.
