Friends show their love in times of trouble, not in happiness.
Silence is true wisdom’s best reply.
Question everything. Learn something. Answer nothing.
Anger exceeding limits causes fear and excessive kindness eliminates respect.
It is a good thing to be rich and strong, but it is a better thing to be loved.
A bad beginning makes a bad ending.
Life has no blessing like a prudent friend.
Youth is the best time to be rich, and the best time to be poor.
Do not consider painful what is good for you.
Authority is never without hate.
Cleverness is not wisdom.
One loyal friend is worth ten thousand relatives.
