marundarindum unnaadhaar noykken marundumarundandro unnin marundu

What medicine is there for the sickness of those who know the medicine and do not take it? Is it not by being taken that medicine becomes medicine?

369. Foresight goes uncredited

சாய்க்கும் புயலறிந்து தாங்கினாள் பேர்மறந்தார்சாய்ந்தபின் தேடுவர் தூண்

saaykkum puyalarindu thaanginaal permarandaarsaayndapin theduvar thoon

She saw the storm that brings things down, and bore the weight; those who forgot her name look for a pillar only when things fall.

The Tamil word for name also means good name or standing.
