Youth is a wreath of roses.
A myrtle even in the desert remains a myrtle.
Teach thy tongue to say, "I do not know."
The house which opens not to the poor will open to the physician.
The birds of the air despise a miser.
Hospitality is an expression of Divine worship.
Thy friend has a friend, and thy friend's friend has a friend; be discreet.
Do not place a blemish on thine own flesh.
Attend no auctions if thou hast no money.
Rather skin a carcass for pay, in the public streets, than lie idly dependent on charity.
