Only fools are born wise.

One who never reads only goes where his feet can take him, but one who does, travels around the world.

He who walks with the wise goes farther than he who runs with fools.

A foolish son has no advantage over an orphan.

A fool stumbles when he walks; the wise are not hampered even when they run.

By the time a fool learns how to hold a spear, the lion has eaten him.

A wise man is closer to God than a fool will ever be to himself.

Fools do not acknowledge God,the proud reject Him,the wise embrace Him,and the righteous worship Him.

Books have more useful things to say than fools.
