There is a time when even justice brings harm.
If you are out of trouble, watch for danger.
One's own escape from troubles makes one glad; but bringing friends to trouble is hard grief.
He who throws away a friend is as bad as he who throws away his life.
But this is a true saying among men: the gifts of enemies are no gifts and profitless.
Look how men live, always precariously balanced between good and bad fortune.
