To become indignant at [people's] conduct is as foolish as to be angry with a stone because it rolls into your path. And with many people the wisest thing you can do, is to resolve to make use of those whom you cannot alter.
Dosti Ek Dil Ka Naata Hai,
Jo Badi Ibaadat Se Nibhaya Jata Hai,
Isme Duriya Ho To Koi Parwah Nahi,
Kyunki Dosto Ko Aanko Me Nahi Dil Me Basaya Hata Hai
God knows; I won't be an Oxford don anyhow. I'll be a poet, a writer, a dramatist. Somehow or other I'll be famous, and if not famous, I'll be notorious. Or perhaps I'll lead the life of pleasure for a time and then—who knows?—rest and do nothing. What does Plato say is the highest end that man can attain here below? To sit down and contemplate the good. Perhaps that will be the end of me too.
We believe that salvation is to be found in wholesome work in a beloved land. Work will provide our people with the bread of tomorrow, and moreover, with the honor of the tomorrow, the freedom of the tomorrow.
Kaisa chalan hai gardish-e-lail-o-nahar ka
shikwa har ek ko hai gam-e-rozagar ka
tuti jo aas jal gaye palkon pe sau chirag
nikhara kuch aur rang shab-e-intazar ka
is zindagi i hum se haqiqat na puchiye
ik jabr jis ko naam diya ikhtiyar ka
ye kon aa gaya meri bazm-e-khayal mein
pucha mizaj kis ne dil-e-sogavar ka
dekho phir aj ho na jaye kaheen khun-e-aitamad
dekho na toot jaye fusun aitabar ka
Scripture says: "Blessed are those who mourn for they shall be comforted." I call on every American family and the family of America to observe a National Day of Prayer and Remembrance, honoring the memory of the thousands of victims of these brutal attacks and comforting those who lost loved ones. We will persevere through this national tragedy and personal loss. In time, we will find healing and recovery; and, in the face of all this evil, we remain strong and united, "one Nation under God."
