The discretion of a man makes him slow to anger. It is his glory to overlook an offense.
A wise son makes a glad father, But a foolish son is the grief of his mother.
The tongue has the power of life and death.
The righteous man walks in his integrity; His children are blessed after him.
Answer a fool according to his folly, Lest he be wise in his own eyes.
A wise person will listen and take in more instruction.
