24. The very steps we take come from God;otherwise how would we know where we’re going?

25. An impulsive vow is a trap;later you’ll wish you could get out of it.

26. After careful scrutiny, a wise leadermakes a clean sweep of rebels and dolts.

27. God is in charge of human life,watching and examining us inside and out.

28. Love and truth form a good leader;sound leadership is founded on loving integrity.

29. Youth may be admired for vigor,but gray hair gives prestige to old age.

30. A good thrashing purges evil;punishment goes deep within us.
