Ch 08 On Rules For Conduct In Life - Maxim 77

He may freely warn who neither fears to lose his life nor hopes for gold. Pour either gold at the feet of a monotheist Or place an Indian sabre to his head. He entertains no hope nor fear from anyone And this is a sufficient basis of monotheism. THE GULISTAN OF SA'DI Translated by Richard Francis Burton (1821-1890)
