Jealousy is cruel as the grave: the coals thereof are coals of fire, which hath a most vehement flame. [Therefore do not compare your lot with another's lest you see their advantages and lose the joy of what you already have.]

Better is the man of humble standing that works for himself than one who plays the great man but lacks bread.

The discretion of a man makes him slow to anger. It is his glory to overlook an offense.

Without vision a people perishes.

Better is a dinner of herbs where love is than a fattened ox and hatred with it.

One who is slow to anger is better than the mighty; one who rules his spirit, than he who takes a city.

If you desire wisdom like money and buried treasures, then you'll find it!
