A small collection of thoughts of Bharavi.
Those who wish well towards their friends disdain to please
them with words which are not true.
The friendship of the bad is like the shade of some
precipitous bank with crumbling sides, which, falling buries him who is
beneath.
As drops of bitter medicine, though minute, may have a
salutary force, so words, though few and painful, uttered seasonably, may rouse
the prostrate energies of those who meet misfortune with despondency.
Be patient, if thou wouldst thy ends accomplish; for like patience
is there no appliance effective of success, producing certainly abundant fruit
of actions, never damped by failure, conquering all impediments.
