P pocket oracle

It is not the sculptor who creates the image, but the one who prays to it. The praise of glorious people depends on time, and not everyone gets what they deserve, while many have not been able to take advantage... of happiness. Water takes good or bad things from the ores it flows through, and a person adopts the customs of the land where they were born. We have become accustomed to hating any person for no reason and sometimes not knowing who they are that we hate. This is just a small portion of the aphorisms, the gems of which are generously scattered throughout the Pocket Oracle of Gracian. Wise, sharpened in Spanish and incisive, sometimes sad, invariably realistic, and at times quite cynical, the sayings of the genius clergyman have not lost their relevance even today—and are unlikely to ever lose it, as human psychology changes little, and the principles of life success remain unchanged.
