الإمام علي (عليه السَّلام):
الإمامُ عليٌّ عليه السلام مِن كِتابِهِ للأشتَرِ لَمّا وَلّاهُ مِصرَ: إنّما يُستَدَلُّ علَى الصّالِحينَ بِما يُجري اللّهُ لَهُم على ألسُنِ عِبادِهِ، فلْيَكُن أحَبَّ الذَّخائرِ إلَيكَ ذَخيرَةُ العَمَلِ الصّالِحِ، فاملِكْ هَواكَ، وشُحَّ بِنَفسِكَ عَمّا لا يَحِلُّ لَكَ؛ فإنَّ الشُّحَّ بِالنَّفسِ الإنصافُ مِنها فيما أحَبَّت أو كَرِهَت.
Imam Ali (AS), in his letter to Malik al-Ashtar when he appointed him governor of Egypt, said, Surely the virtuous are known by the reputation that Allah circulates for them through the tongues of His creatures. Therefore, the best collection with you should be the collection of good deeds. So control your passions and deprive your heart from doing what is not lawful for you, because depriving the heart means detaining it just half way between what it likes and dislikes.

His most famous work is Nahj al-Balagha, a collection of Imam Ali's (a) sayings and letters. He founded a school named Dar al-'Ilm ( دار العلم, literally "House of knowledge") in which he trained many students, some of whom later became prominent scholars.
