Trees on a riverbank, a woman in another man's house, and kings without counselors go without doubt to swift destruction.

It is only by prudence, wisdom, and dexterity, that great ends are attained and obstacles overcome. Without these qualities nothing succeeds.

Don't gain the world and lose your soul, wisdom is better than silver or gold.

The truest wisdom is a resolute determination.
