One who is slow to anger is better than the mighty; one who rules his spirit, than he who takes a city.
The righteous man walks in his integrity; His children are blessed after him.
All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full.
Your own soul is nourished when you are kind; it is destroyed when you are cruel.
A soft answer breaks the rage, a tough answer encourage the fury.
The discretion of a man makes him slow to anger. It is his glory to overlook an offense.
