“As for this young Ali, one cannot but like him.  A noble-minded creature, as he shows himself, now and always afterwards; full of affection, of fiery daring.  Something chivalrous in him; brave as a lion; yet with a grace, a truth and affection worthy of Christian knighthood.”

Do not consider any act of kindness insignificant, even meeting your brother with a cheerful face.

When one of you becomes angry while standing, he should sit down. If the anger leaves him, well and good; otherwise he should lie down.

As you will be so will you have rulers put over you.
