Friends show their love in times of trouble, not in happiness.

Life has no blessing like a prudent friend.

Whoso neglects learning in his youth, loses the past and is dead for the future.

Those whom God wishes to destroy, he first makes mad.

He was a wise man who originated the idea of God.

Happiness is brief. It will not stay. God batters at its sails.

God hates violence. He has ordained that all men fairly possess their property, not seize it.

Down on your knees, and thank heaven, fasting, for a good man's love.

The best and safest thing is to keep a balance in your life, acknowledge the great powers around us and in us. If you can do that, and live that way, you are really a wise man.

Happiness is brief. It will not stay. God batters at its sails.
