Absolutely your quote is excellent ,the wisest mankind enjoy that(Second one).
@markdeheide is it possible to every wisest one??
Every man has some bound in their life. It may be money, may be happiness , may be reputation or other anythings. There are so may wisest people but to overcome all the problem and be success in life is only a few wisest and now they are the example of excellence.
whatever we want ,every time we can't fill that. Some obstacle, some interruption, some weakness stop us.If only a few percent of overall percentages can gain whatever they want then we can't make that the precis.
