1. Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring.
2. Let another praise you and not your own mouth, a stranger and not your own lips.
3. A stone is heavy and sand a burden, but provocation by a fool is heavier than both.
4. Wrath is cruel and anger is overwhelming, but who can stand before jealousy?
5. Better is open rebuke than hidden love.
6. Faithful are the wounds of a friend, but excessive the kisses of an enemy.
7. One who is full loathes honeycomb, but to one who is hungry every bitter thing is sweet.
