Panchatantra Quotes


An ancient Indian collection of animal fables in verse and prose, in a frame story format.
The Panchatantra is an ancient Indian collection of animal fables in verse and prose, in a frame story format. The original Sanskrit work, which some scholars believe was composed in the 3rd century BCE, is attributed to Vishnu Sharma. However, it is based on older oral traditions, including "animal fables that are as old as we are able to imagine". It is "certainly the most frequently translated literary product of India", and these stories are among the most widely known in the world. 

Here are some famous quotes by  Panchatantra.

[MysteRy]

By associating with good and evil persons a man acquires the virtues and vices which they possess even as the wind blowing over different places takes along good and bad odors.

[MysteRy]

One should seek for the salutary in the unpleasant: if it is there it is after all nectar. One should seek for the deceitful in the pleasant: if it is there it is after all poison.
