* Surely oppression maketh a wise man mad ; and a gift destroyeth the heart . * Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof : and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit . * Be not hasty in thy spirit to be angry : for anger resteth in the bosom of fools . * Say not thou , What is the cause that the former days were better than these ? for thou dost not enquire wisely concerning this .
