One ungrateful person, does an injury to all needy people.

One ungrateful person, does an injury to all needy people.

Summary

This quote suggests that the actions of a single ungrateful individual can impact and harm not just themselves, but also those who are truly in need. By showing ingratitude and not appreciating what they have, this person indirectly undermines the efforts of those who rely on help and support from others. It speaks to the idea that even small acts of gratitude can have a positive ripple effect, while disregarding gratitude can have negative consequences for the larger community.

Get but a truth once uttered, and 'tis like A star new born

Get but a truth once uttered, and 'tis like A star new born that drops into its place; And which, once circling in its placid round, Not all the tumult of the earth can shake. Henceforth the leaves of the tree of knowledge were for women, and for the healing of the nations.
