Storytime with Slim Khezri - Season 2 (2021)

What are you looking at? To what goal are you straining? The whole future lies in uncertainty: live immediately.

The mind without passions is a fortress. No place is more secure. Once we take refuge there we are safe forever. Not to see this is ignorance. To see it and not seek safety means misery.

To bear in mind constantly that all of this has happened before. And will happen again-the same plot from beginning to end, the identical staging.

This fable applies to those people who, for the sake of paltry profit, expose themselves to a great danger.

You have been preoccupied while life hastens on. Meanwhile death will arrive, and you have no choice in making yourself available for that.

People are frugal in guarding their personal property; but as soon as it comes to squandering time they are most wasteful of the one thing in which it is right to be stingy.

If you indulge someone's wickedness, you provoke him to do even more harm. It is unwise to reward when one should punish.
