Anger
    Anger does nobody good, but patience is the father of kindness.

Assistance
    Not to aid one in distress is to kill him in your heart.

Birth
    Birth does not differ from birth; as the free man was born so was
    the slave. 
    In the beginning our Lord created all.  With him there is neither
    slave nor free man, but every one is free.

Boasting
    Boasting is not courage.  He who boasts much cannot do much.  Much
    gesticulation does not prove courage.

Borrowing
    Borrowing is easy but the day of payment is hard.

Chance
    He who waits for chance may wait for a year.

Character
    Wherever a man goes to dwell his character goes with him.  Every
    man’s character is good in his own eyes.

Charity
    Charity is the father of sacrifice.

Children
    There is no wealth without children.  It is the duty of children to
    wait on elders, not elders on children.

Condemnation
    You condemn on hearsay evidence alone, your sins increase.

Contempt
    Men despise what they do not understand.

Covetousness
    If thou seeketh to obtain by force what our Lord did not give thee,
    thou wilt not get it.

Danger of Beauty
    He who marries a beauty, marries trouble.

Danger of Poverty
    Beg help and you will meet with refusals; ask for alms and you will
    meet with misers.

Danger of Wealth
    It is better to be poor and live long than rich and die young.

Disposition
    A man’s disposition is like a mark in a stone, no one can efface it.

Doing Good
    If one does good, God will interpret it to him for good.

Duty to One’s Self
    Do not repair another man’s fence until you have seen to your own.

Effort
    You cannot kill game by looking at it.

Evil Doer
    The evil doer is ever anxious.

Experience
    We begin by being foolish and we become wise by experience.

Familiarity
    Familiarity induces contempt, but distance secures respect.

Faults
    Faults are like a hill, you stand on your own and you talk about
    those of other people.

Faults of the Rich
    If thou art poor, do not make a rich man thy friend. 
    If thou goest to a foreign country, do not alight at a rich man’s
    house.

Favor of the Great
    To love the king is not bad, but a king who loves you is better.

Folly
    After a foolish action comes remorse.

Forethought
    A person prepared beforehand is better than after reflection. 
    The day on which one starts is not the time to commence one’s
    preparation.
