Quote by Mehmet Murat Ildan

“The student asked: Master, you know this river very well, where is the fish most abundant? The master replied: Where there are plenty of fish, you won't gain anything by catching a lot of fish, anything but fish! I'll tell you where the fish are the least, go there, if you catch fish there you will not only have caught fish, you will also gain wisdom because the flower of wisdom grows in the land of difficulties!”
