Nuggets of Wisdom

A wise person's heart controls his speech, and what he says helps others learn.

People with good sense are slow to anger, and it is their glory to overlook an offense.

The thoughts of the righteous are just; the counsels of the wicked are deceitful.

Discipline your child while there is hope, but don't get so angry that you kill him!

A twisted person spreads rumors; a whispering gossip ruins good friendship

Whoever guards his mouth preserves his life; he who opens wide his lips comes to ruin.

Listen to advice, and accept discipline, so that in the end you will be wise

A man who mocks his father and despises his mother shall have his eye plucked out by ravens and eaten by vultures.
