Chinese Proverb

Ancient Chinese Proverb



If you give a man a fish , he will have a meal.

If you teach him to fish, he will have  living.

If you are thinking of a year ahead, sow a seed.

If you are thinking 10 years ahead, plant a tree.

If you are thinking one hundred years ahead, educate the people,

By sowing seed once, you will harvest once.

By planting a tree, you will harvest tenfold.

By educating the people, you will harvest one hundred fold.
