Oonche baithe na lahai, gun bin barpan koi.
Baitho deval sikhar par, bayas garud na hoi.”
Means:
“No one becomes great merely by sitting in a high place.
Even if a crow sits atop a temple, it does not become an eagle (Garuda).”
“Uttam vidya leejiyé, yadapi neech pai hoy.
Paro apavan thaura mein, kanchan tajat na koy"
Means:
“Accept noble knowledge, even if it comes from a lowly person.
Just as no one leaves gold lying in a dirty place.”
