Two men took useless trouble and strove without any profit, when one of them accumulated property without enjoying it, and the other learnt without practising what he had learnt. <br /> <br /> However much science thou mayest acquire <br /> Thou art ignorant when there is no practice in thee. <br /> Neither deeply learned nor a scholar will be <br /> A quadruped loaded with some books. <br /> What information or knowledge does the silly beast posses <br /> Whether it is carrying a load of wood or of books?<br /><br />Saadi Shirazi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/ch-08-on-rules-for-conduct-in-life-maxim-02/
