The discretion of a man makes him slow to anger. It is his glory to overlook an offense.
There is a time to weep and a time to laugh; a time to mourn and a time to dance.
A wise man's heart directs him toward the right, but a foolish man's heart directs him toward the left.
Listen to your father who begot you, And do not despise your mother when she is old.
In the day of prosperity be joyful, but in the day of adversity consider.
A soft answer breaks the rage, a tough answer encourage the fury.
