Drink your fill when the jar is first opened, and when it is nearly done, but be sparing when it is half-empty; it's a poor savingwhen you come to the dregs.

A bad neighbor is a misfortune, as much as a good one is a great blessing.

In the morning of like, work; in the midday, give counsel; in the evening, pray.

Whoever, fleeing marriage and the sorrows that women cause, does not wish to wed comes to a deadly old age.

Try to take for a mate a person of your own neighborhood.

A sparing tongue is the greatest treasure among men.
