Go, enjoy eating your food, and drink your wine cheerfully, because God has already accepted what you’ve done.

Wisdom is better than weapons of war, but one sinner can destroy much that is good.

One should pay more attention to calm words from wise people than shouting from a ruler of fools.

The living know that they will die, but the dead don’t know anything. There is no more reward for the dead when the memory of them has faded.
