Hinduism

Tukaram, Poem 1276

Those that run away are cowards; they find
many difficulties in the world; as for those
who take courage, Hari brings them abundance
from the pot on high. Those who trust to
their own intellect remain unsatisfied. Tuka says,
Take it when you can get it; you will never reach
the spot yourselves.
