"Famous Writings Collections" - Part 1 compiled by Shri. Gopalkrishna Vaidyanathan Iyer (G.V. Iyer)
1) When nobody knows what has to be done, everybody says, "Something has to be done".
Meaning: When the mind is indecisive, it keeps taking the help of ideas from others.
2) He who is slowest in making a promise is most faithful in his performance.
Meaning: When a true person gives his promise, he ensures to fulfill it.
3) Anyone can become angry. That is easy. But to be angry with the right person, at the right degree, at the right time, for the right purpose, and in the right way - that is not easy.
Meaning: Anger is easy to come but expressing anger in the right manner is difficult.
4) You know you've read a good book when you turn the last page and feel a little as if you have lost a friend.
Meaning: Good books are like good friends whom we miss once they are not there.
5) A MAN is known by his books, his friends, and the mistakes he admits.
Meaning: A person's character is judged by the type of friends he walks with, the kind of books he reads, and the way he remains true to himself by accepting his mistakes.
