O thou asker of food, sit for thou wilt eat; and 0 thou asked by death, run not for thou wilt not save thy life. <br /> <br /> Whether thou strivest for a maintenance or not <br /> God the most high and glorious will send it to thee; <br /> And if thou rushest into the jaw of a lion or tiger <br /> They will not devour thee unless on the day decreed. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /><br />Saadi Shirazi<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/ch-08-on-rules-for-conduct-in-life-admonition-20/
