Education is the best friend. An educated person is respected everywhere. Education beats the beauty and the youth.

Never make friends with people who are above or below you in status. Such friendships will never give you any happiness.

He who loses his money is forsaken by his friends, his wife, his servants and his relations; yet when he regains his riches those who have forsaken him come back to him. Hence wealth is certainly the best of relations.

Good behavior wins even an enemy.

In trans-border relations, there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies or even permanent borders. There are only permanent interests and everything should be done to secure these interests.

When one is consumed by the sorrows of life, three things give him relief: offspring, a wife, and the company of the Lord's devotees.

The poor wish for wealth; animals for the faculty of speech; men wish for heaven; and godly persons for liberation.
