Do not be like those on whom advice has no effect and who require punishment to correct themselves.

A man is hid under his tongue.

People's hearts are like wild animals. They attach their selves to those that love and train them.

Loving one another is half of wisdom.

Thy lot or portion of life is seeking after thee; therefore be at rest from seeking after it.

Not every man with a heart is understanding, nor every man with an ear a listener, and nor every man with eyes able to see.

Wealth tends to create enemies, whereas knowledge tends to warm hearts.
