1. Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring.
2. Let someone else praise you, and not your own mouth; an outsider, and not your own lips.
3. Stone is heavy and sand a burden, but a fool’s provocation is heavier than both.
4. Anger is cruel and fury overwhelming, but who can stand before jealousy?
5. Better is open rebuke than hidden love.
