Education Quote by Sultan Bahu
““Through study and learning they earn the pleasure of princes- What comes of such learning? Butter never rises from boiling sour milk. Speak bird! What do you yearn by pecking newly sprouted grain? Nursing one broken heart, Bahu, is equal to the worship of many years.””
