21.11.11
The Dhammapada
Those who make channels for water control the waters;
makers of arrows make the arrows straight;
carpenters control their timber;
and the wise control their own minds.
makers of arrows make the arrows straight;
carpenters control their timber;
and the wise control their own minds.
Aqueles que fazem canais para a água controlam a água;
os que fazem flechas as fazem retas;
os carpinteiros controlam sua madeira;
e os sábios controlam sua própria mente.
