“Better to have a diamond with a few small flaws than a rock that is perfect.”

Dependence on another is perpetual disappointment.

Smiles that you broadcast, will always come back to you.

The first day a guest, the second day a guest, the third day a calamity.

It is love that makes the impossible possible.

What was hard to bear is sweet to remember.

Every dog is a tiger in his own street.

Better a hundred enemies outside the house than one inside.

Greed is the root cause of sorrow.

There are three uncertainties: woman, wind, and wealth.

Happy is the woman whose husband does not speak to her.

Poverty destroys all virtues.

A house without children is a graveyard.

A dog always bites under the knee.

Never stand in front of a judge or behind a donkey.

It is better to be blind than to see things from only one point of view.

No one was ever lost on a straight road.
