Quote by Bhagavad Gita

A man's own self is his friend. A man's own self is his foe.

A man's own self is his friend. A man's own self is his foe.

Summary

This quote highlights the duality that exists within individuals. On one hand, a person can be their own friend, meaning they can trust, support, and rely on themselves. They can be their greatest source of encouragement and motivation. On the other hand, a person can also be their own foe, referring to the negative thoughts, self-doubt, and self-sabotage that arise within oneself. It underscores the struggle of balancing self-confidence and inner critic, reminding us that we have the power to be our own best ally or worst enemy.

Philosophy [nature] is written in that great book which ever is before our eyes -- I mean the universe -- but we cannot understand it if we do not first learn the language and grasp the symbols in which it is written. The book is written in mathematical language, and the symbols are triangles, circles and other geometrical figures, without whose help it is impossible to comprehend a single word of it; without which one wanders in vain through a dark labyrinth.
