1 Do not brag about tomorrow, because you do not know what another day may bring. 2 Praise should come from another person and not from your own mouth, from a stranger and not from your own lips. 3 A stone is heavy, and sand weighs a lot, but annoyance caused by a stubborn fool is heavier than both. 4 Anger is cruel, and fury is overwhelming, but who can survive jealousy? 5 Open criticism is better than unexpressed love. 6 Wounds made by a friend are intended to help, but an enemy's kisses are too much to bear.
