“Discipline your son when he’s young, and be his friend when he grows up.”

No crowd ever waited at the gates of patience.

Arrogance is a weed that grows mostly on a dunghill.

Go with the lesser of two evils.

Give your friends your money and your blood, but don’t justify yourself. Your enemies won’t believe it and your friends won’t need it.

Visit rarely, and you will be more loved.

The rope of lies is short. There is only so much leeway you have when you lie. Once that very short rope runs out, you’ll have to face the consequences.

Make distance between you and every dirtiness.

Get together like brothers, but work together like strangers.

Ignorance is the most terrible acquaintance.

A sense of humor is the pole that adds balance to our steps as we walk the tightrope of life.

If you are charitable, you are rich.

Avoid the company of liars, but if you can’t, don’t believe them. This one is pretty straightforward, isn’t it?

If the wind blows, ride it.

Jealousy is nothing more than a fear of abandonment.

Love sees sharply, hatred sees even more sharp, but jealousy sees the sharpest for it is love and hate at the same time.

Few know how much we must know in order to know how little we know.
