Don’t waste time; lost wealth can be retrieved, but time is lost forever. The wise person is cautious in his speech and remains discreet about thinks that must be regarded. Never regard a woman as an object. Respect her weaknesses, and remember the mother who brought you into this world and who cared for you in your childhood A man's worth is not measured by his status in life, by the height of his nose nor the fairness of skin, nor in being priest representing God.
