If you see oppression of the poor, and justice and righteousness trampled in a country, do not be astounded.

Start with God - the first step in learning is bowing down to God; only fools thumb their noses at such wisdom and learning.

Lazy hands make a man poor, but diligent hands bring wealth.

Then the dust will return to the earth as it was, and the spirit will return to God who gave it.

Under the Sun the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor wealth to the intelligent, nor success to the skillful, but time and chance govern all. For man does not know his time.

The righteous man walks in his integrity; His children are blessed after him.

Do not let kindness and truth leave you; Bind them around your neck, Write them on the tablet of your heart.
