There are two kinds of sins:those that affect an individual,and those that affect the nation.The latter the king must take seriously;the former is between God and the individual.

If you are lenient with criminals, crime will rise.If you oppress the masses,they will rise up against you.If you are just and kind,even your enemies will respect you.To rule over your nation righteously is betterthan to rule over a hundred nations with an iron fist.

The wicked cry out,“We are oppressed!”when the law is set out.The righteous rejoice,“We are blessed!”when a king serves Godaccording to His law.

There is no future for a nation without God.There is no hope for a ruler without understanding.The is no joy for a people without guidance.The is no prosperity for country without wisdom.

Corruption is a virus with an antidote.Injustice is an illness with a remedy.Wisdom is the key to good governance;righteousness is the key to sustaining it.

The greatest nations on earth are those that serve the least.

You can lead people where they have never gone if you get there in your mind first.

To serve is to command; to command is to serve.

To strengthen families encourage children. To strengthen communities educate families. To strengthen a nation empower its communities.
