Ch 02 The Morals Of Dervishes Story 49
A sage having been asked whether liberality or bravery is better replied: ‘He who possesses liberality needs no bravery.’
It is written on the tomb of Behram Gur:
‘A liberal hand is better than a strong arm.’
Hatim Tai has passed away but for ever
His high name will remain celebrated for beneficence.
Set aside the zekat from thy property because the exuberant vines
When pruned by the vintner will yield more grapes.
Nothing feeds upon itself as liberality does.

A rich man without liberality is like a tree without fruit.
However many blessings we expect from God, His infinite liberality will always exceed all our wishes and our thoughts.

Woman’s liberality rises
Women are chaste
More from guilt than from qualms.
The liberality is liquidating the both.
Now they are as free as men.

I hate liberality - nine times out of ten it is cowardice, and the tenth time lack of principle.

Known beauties.
Make up, focus and set up
Make a woman look good..
Liberality pushes her up.
The title gives her permanence.

Liberality and sensuality
Cultural blocks are built by men
For their women from men’s insecure
Minds to block women’s liberality
And deprive them of sensuality.

Generosity during life is a very different thing from generosity in the hour of death; one proceeds from genuine liberality and benevolence, the other from pride or fear.

At least once
In spite of proximity, affinity,
Vulnerability, liberality,
And secrecy, a woman still eludes
Evades and escapes from a man’s embrace.
Shame is a dog that guards her.
Who hasn’t suspected his wife at least once?

As Mankind becomes more liberal, they will be more apt to allow that all those who conduct themselves as worthy members of the community are equally entitled to the protections of civil government. I hope ever to see America among the foremost nations of justice and liberality.

The face and shyness
A graceful face is enough
To attract a man of repute.
Revealing posture will retract.
A woman must retain enough sigh
To draw in a man of repute.
Liberality will retract.

To be homely is lovely
Women of beauty!
The intellectuals and the executives,
Simple with no extravaganza,
Still command men’s awe.
Others, glamorous, lascivious,
Or in excess of costumes and cosmetics,
Would evoke in you a liberality.
Be simple and homely;
You’re winsome and comely.

A Song For Mely....
when you ask for rice
i do not ask questions
i give you what you need
you deserve to eat
many will criticize
this liberality of giving
that i am just making
Mely so lazy
Mely, you must eat
beyond right or wrong
weak or strong
Mely, you must live
i have no more questions.

Whenever I hear people talking about 'liberal ideas,' I am always astounded that men should love to fool themselves with empty sounds. An idea should never be liberal it must be vigorous, positive, and without loose ends so that it may fulfill its divine mission and be productive. The proper place for liberality is in the realm of the emotions.

Woman’s Virtue
Woman’s chastity shows the strength
Of man’s possessiveness.
Woman’s liberality shows the strength
Os man’s helplessness.
