Ch 08 On Rules For Conduct In Life - Maxim 26

From a body without a heart obedience does not arise and a husk without a kernel is no stock in trade. Not everyone who is brisk in dispute is correct in business. Many a stature concealed by a sheet If revealed appears to be the mother of one’s mother. THE GULISTAN OF SA'DI Translated by Richard Francis Burton (1821-1890)
