Ch 08 On Rules For Conduct In Life - Maxim 73

Who has no mercy upon inferiors will suffer from the tyranny of superiors. Not every arm which contains strength Breaks the hand of the weak for showing bravery. Injure not the heart of the helpless For thou wilt succumb to the force of a strong man. THE GULISTAN OF SA'DI Translated by Richard Francis Burton (1821-1890)
