If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink:

A wise man is strong; yea, a man of knowledge increaseth strength.

Apply thine heart unto instruction, and thine ears to the words of knowledge.

A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches, and loving favour rather than silver and gold.

Whoso keepeth his mouth and his tongue keepeth his soul from troubles.

Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.

He that getteth wisdom loveth his own soul: he that keepeth understanding shall find good.

Before destruction the heart of man is haughty, and before honour is humility.

Children’s children are the crown of old men; and the glory of children are their fathers.

The wise in heart shall be called prudent: and the sweetness of the lips increaseth learning.
