Greater even than the pious man is he who eats that which is the fruit of his own toil; for Scripture declares him twice blessed
He that is gentle to the brutal will end up being brutal to the gentle
He who carries out one good deed acquires one advocate in his own behalf, and he who commits one transgression acquires one accuser against himself. Repentance and good works are like a shield against calamity.
He who is without a wife dwells without blessing, life, joy, help, good, and peace
He who loves money will not be satisfied with money
He whose wisdom exceeds his works, to what may he be likened? To a tree whose branches are numerous but whose roots are few. The wind comes along and uproots it and sweeps it down.
