सुभाषितसुधानिधि - प्रियं वचः

अलं दानेन विप्रेन्द यजनाध्ययनेन वा ।
इदं तत्स्वर्गसोपानममलं यत्प्रियं वचः ॥

- सुभाषितसुधानिधि

Oh great brahmin! stop all this charity, rituals, studying and all other attempts to go to heaven. Developing a habit of talking sweetly towards all under all circumstances is the key to going to heaven.

- Subhashitasudhanidhi
