Jimmy lived in the country, and he loved playing in a very shallow river near his house; but then his father got a job in a big city, and he moved there with his family.
Their new house had a garden, but the garden was very small. Jimmy wasn't very happy.
" Is there a river near here?" he asked his mother on the first morning.
His mother answered, "No,there isn't, but there is a beautiful park near here, Jimmy, and there's a pool in it. We'll go there this afternoon." Then Jimmy was happy.
After lunch, Jimmy and his mother went to the park. Jimmy wanted to walk near the pool, but there was a sign in front of it. His mother read it to him: "WARNING: This pool is dangerous. 367 people have fallen into it. " Jimmy looked into the pool carefully. Then he said, "I can't see them."

بنی آدم اعضای یک پیکرند                   که در آفرینش ز یک گوهرند

چو عضوی به درد آورد روزگار            دگر عضوها را نماند قرار

تو کز محنت دیگران بی غمی                نشاید که نامت نهند آدمی

Oneness of Mankind       

All men are members of the same body

Created from one essence

If fate brings suffering to one member

The others cannot stay at rest

You who remain indifferent to the burden of pain of others

Do not deserve to be called human

خشم بیش از حد گرفتن, وحشت آرد و لطف بی وقت, هیبت ببرد. نه چندان درشتی کن که از تو سیر گردند و نه چندان نرمی که بر تو دلیر شوند.

درشتی و نرمی به هم در, به است          چو رگزن که جراح و مرهم نه است

Wrath beyond measure produces estrangement and untimely kindness destroys authority. Be neither so harsh as to disgust the people with thee nor so mild as to embolden them

Severity and mildness together are best

Like a bleeder who is a surgeon and also applies a salve

مَن قَرَعَ باباً  وَ لَجَُ وَ لَجَ

هر که دری را بکوبد و اصرار ورزد داخل می شود

Whoever knocks on a door and persists will be allowed in
