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

Anger begins with madness, but ends in regret.

Silence is the sign of approval.

Every sun has to set.

Unity is power.

The stingy have large porches and little morality.

Falseness lasts an hour, the truth lasts until the end of time.

Laugh and the world laughs with you; weep, and you weep alone.

Be in the world, but not of the world.

What is learned in youth is carved in stone.

If you’re unable to reward, then make sure to thank.

If you have an opinion, you better be determined.

A known mistake is better than an unknown truth.

A house divided cannot stand.

Do not buy either the moon or the news, for in the end they will both come out.

The wisest is the one who can forgive.

In haste there is regret, but in patience and care there is peace and safety. This means you shouldn’t rush things, because if you rush something you’ll end up doing a poor job and regretting the results. If you take your time, you’re ensuring a good end result and can feel peace in knowing that.
