Don't take the wrong side of an argument just because your opponent has taken the right side.

He that has satisfied his thirst turns his back on the well

Always leave something to wish for; otherwise you will be miserable from your very happiness

Friendship multiplies the good of life and divides the evil

Dreams will get you nowhere, a good kick in the pants will take you a long way

Know or listen to those who know

The wise does at once what the fool does at last

Better mad with the rest of the world than wise alone.

Never contend with a man who has nothing to lose

Never do anything when you are in a temper, for you will do everything wrong
