Thou shalt not horn in on thy husbands racket
I would rather be tied to the soil as a serf... than be king of all these dead and destroyed.

Be both a speaker of words and a doer of deeds.
The windy satisfaction of the tongue.
But curb thou the high spirit in thy breast, for gentle ways are best, and keep aloof from sharp contentions.
