Do not get a name as overly lavish or too inhospitable.
For a man wins nothing better than a good wife, and then again nothing deadlier than a bad one.
He is a fool who tries to match his strength with the stronger.
Do not put all your goods in hollow ships.
Do not seek dishonest gains: dishonest gains are losses.
Whoever happens to give birth to mischievous children lives always with unending grief in his spirit and heart.
