My favourite is the last one:


Only after the last fish has been caught
Only after the last animal has been killed
Only after the last tree has been chopped
Will mankind discover that money cannot be eaten.
-A Red Indian saying


He who knows and knows not he knows
He is asleep,wake him
He who knows and knows that he knows
He is a wise man,seek him
He who knows not and knows that he knows not
He is a child,teach him
He who knows not and knows not he knows not
He is a fool,shun him
-Confucius

It does not matter if it is a black cat or a white cat,as long as it catches mice it is a good cat.

.THAT'S WHY YOU ARE FIRED AND HE STAYS!!!!

Destiny is never by accident; It is the result of higher intent (Divine) as well as sincere and concerted effort by individual with focused direction and skilful execution.

One who knows, and knows he knows, is a wise man;
Follow Him.

One who knows, and knows not he knows, is asleep;
Awaken Him.

One who knows not, and knows he knows not, is a child;
Teach Him.

One who knows not, and knows not he knows not, is a Fool;
Avoid Him.

Similar quote I learned from somewhere:-

4 stages of learning process:-
Unconscious Incompetence = Don't know what he does not know.

Conscious Incompetence = Know what he does not know.

Conscious Competence = Know what he knows.

Unconscious Competence = Don't know what he knows.

The final stage is the ultimum, like we are doing alot of thinks unconsciously, e.g. writing, listening.....

Teach a man to keep it,
You probably ruin him from that day…..
