警世格言
清 金纓 編述( 生卒年不詳 )

行善如春園之草，不見其長，但日有所增；
行惡如磨刀之石，不見其消，但日有所損。
──選自《格言聯璧》

Aphorism
Jin Ying (Years unknown, Qing Dynasty)
English translation: Miao Guang

Kind deeds are like grass in the garden whose growth may
not seem obvious, but lengthens day by day.

Unwholesome deeds are like a whetstone whose decrease
may not seem obvious, but deteriorates day by day.

── from Geyan Lianbi (Aphorisms and Apothegms)
