Nuggets of Wisdom

It is an honor for a man to stay out of a fight. Only fools insist on quarreling

The words of the wicked are like a murderous ambush, but the words of the godly save lives.

Those who plan evil are in for a rude surprise, but those who work for good will find happiness.

When a fool speaks, he is destroying himself. His own words are a trap that catches him.

Better to be patient than powerful; better to have self-control than to conquer a city.

A lazy person is as bad as someone who destroys things.

Hold on to instruction; don’t slack off; protect it, for it is your life.

Only a stupid person promises to pay someone else's debts, even if he is a friend or a neighbour
