“A handful of common sense is worth a bushel of learning.”
-Spanish proverb
As a human, everybody, has a common sense. Even a person of no education, he has also common sense. In ancient days, many Chinese were of no education, ignorant in every way, but they still could survive in their life. It was entirely by the thought of common sense. Of course, we need knowledge to upgrade our life, but still common sense is something we need to live on.
“An unusual amount of common sense is something called wisdom.”
Our wisdom is from common sense. The best common sense is wisdom. Therefore, we must try to build up our good common sense to pave a smooth path in our life.
“Conscience, like a pencil, needs to be sharpened occasionally.”
In our conscience, we need to criticize ourselves from time to time. By doing so, we can control our conscience to do only good things and avoid to do bad things of any kind.
“It is neither safe nor prudent to do something against the conscience.’
-Martin Luther
Though somebody does something evil, no one knows. But his heart cannot be peaceful because of frequent reminder from his conscience.
