Conquer a man who never gives by gifts; Subdue untruthful men by truthfulness; Vanquish an angry man by gentleness; And overcome the evil man by goodness |

Days should speak, and multitude of years should teach wisdom (Job 32:7). |
Dip your tongue in wisdom, then give counsel |

Do not crush the flowers of wisdom with the hobnail boots of cynicism. |

Every one is wise when the mischief is done. |
Everything we enjoy in society is a direct result of the accumulated learning derived from millions of mistakes. No mistakes, no progress. Yet we still look at making a mistake as embarrassing, wrong, an act bordering on sin. If you’re making mistakes, it means you’re doing new things, taking risks, stretching yourself. You’re growing, learning. And isn't the journey, the experience, not the destination, what life is all about? |
