Quote by Matshona Dhliwayo

“The mind is a great scholar, the heart is an extraordinary saint, and the soul is a remarkable sage; together they are alters of reason. The mind is a temple of knowledge, the heart is a shrine of understanding, and the soul is a chapel of wisdom; together they are sanctuaries of enlightenment.”
