It is an honor for a man to keep aloof from strife; but every fool will be quarreling.
Penalties are prepared for scoffers, and beatings for the backs of fools.
A hot-tempered man must pay the penalty, for if you rescue him, you must do it again.
The beginning of strife is like breaching a dam, therefore stop contention before quarreling breaks out.
A wise man fears, and shuns evil, but the fool is hotheaded and reckless.
The fool's talk brings a rod to his back, but the lips of the wise protect them.
Pride only breeds quarrels, but with ones who take advice is wisdom.
A fool shows his annoyance the same day, but one who overlooks an insult is prudent.
Drive out the mocker, and strife will go out; yes, quarrels and insults will stop.
