However much you study, you cannot know without action. A donkey laden with books is neither an intellectual nor a wise man. Empty of essence, what learning has he whether upon him is firewood or book?
If wisdom was to cease throughout the world, no one would suspect himself of ignorance.
Better hold the hand for coin, though small, Than lose, for one half a dang, it all.
Be not in the desire of thine own ease.
I fear God and next to God I mostly fear them that fear him not.
A grateful dog is better than an ungrateful man.
