The house of a childless person is a void, all directions are void to one who has no relatives, the heart of a fool is also void, but to a poverty stricken man all is void.

A wise man should not divulge the formula of a medicine which he has well prepared; an act of charity which he has performed; domestic conflicts; private affairs with his wife; poorly prepared food he may have been offered; or slang he may have heard.

Beauty is spoiled by an immoral nature; noble birth by bad conduct; learning, without being perfected; and wealth by not being properly utilised.

Wealth is a great sin in the eyes of God. Poverty is a great sin in the eyes of man.

Education is the path from cocky ignorance to miserable uncertainty.

Awareness of ignorance is the beginning of wisdom.
