Labor is no disgrace.
Actions from youth, advice from the middle-aged, prayers from the aged.
Observe due measure, for right timing is in all things the most important factor.
In the race for wealth, a neighbor tries to outdo his neighbor, but this strife is good for men. For the potter envies potter, and the carpenter the carpenter, and the beggar rivals the beggar, and the singer the singer.
Money is life to us wretched mortals.
Only fools need suffer to learn.
