- Grandchildren are the crown of the old,
And the glory of sons is their fathers. - Excellent speech is not fitting for a fool,
Much less are lying lips to a prince. - One who conceals an offense seeks love,
But one who repeats a matter separates close friends. - A friend loves at all times,
And a brother is born for adversity. - A joyful heart is good medicine,
But a broken spirit dries up the bones. - Even a fool, when he keeps silent, is considered wise;
When he closes his lips, he is considered prudent.
