- Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring forth.
- Let another praise you, and not your own mouth; someone else, and not your own lips.
- Stone is heavy and sand a burden, but provocation by a fool is heavier than both.
- Anger is cruel and fury overwhelming, but who can stand before jealousy?
- Better is open rebuke than hidden love.

- Wounds from a friend can be trusted, but an enemy multiplies kisses.
- He who is full loathes honey, but to the hungry even what is bitter tastes sweet.
- Like a bird that strays from its nest is a man who strays from his home.
- Perfume and incense bring joy to the heart, and the pleasantness of one's friend springs from his earnest counsel.
