Your Worth

The scholars said:
‎قيمة الانسان أحياناً تكون فيما يترك لا فيما يأخذ،
‎وفيما لا يقول لا فيما يقول
“Your worth is sometimes established:
by what you leave, not by what you take;
by what you don’t say, not by what you say.”

For example: Refusing a bribe, refusing to retaliate with foul language: increases your worth as a person, it does not decrease it.
