Quotable quotes from Chanakya Niti

Interestingly i came across these, when I was skimming through Chankaya Niti. 

Chanakya's take on Education

"One destitute of wealth is not destitute, he is indeed rich (if he is learned); but the man devoid of learning is destitute in every way." 

And Chanakya's take on charity. 

"Charity puts and end to poverty; righteous conduct to misery; discretion to ignorance; and scrutiny to fear."

Chanakya's take on wealth, food and education. 

"He who is not shy in the acquisition of wealth, grain and knowledge, and in taking his meals, will be happy"
