Matshona Dhliwayo
Anger is loud, rage is deafening, and wrath is thunderous; only love can silence them.
Matshona Dhliwayo
One who protects himself from negative thoughts protects himself from negative outcomes.
Matshona Dhliwayo
Helping yourself is common sense, helping others is virtue, helping yourself and others is enlightenment.
Matshona Dhliwayo
Be humble as you learn, confident as you teach, and modest when you have mastered both.
Matshona Dhliwayo
Love lost is better than hate found. True criticism is better than false praise. Genuine enemies are better than counterfeit friends.
Matshona Dhliwayo
The universe offers you three things that money cannot buy: joy, love, and life.
Matshona Dhliwayo
The uglier the storm the lovelier the rainbow.
