A violent-tempered person will pay the penalty; if you effect a rescue, you will only have to do it again.
Like a city breached, without walls, is one who lacks self-control.
One given to anger stirs up strife, and the hothead causes much transgression.
Discipline your children while there is hope; do not set your heart on their destruction.
Listen to advice and accept instruction, that you may gain wisdom for the future.
Surely vexation kills the fool, and jealousy slays the simple.
