The wise accumulate wisdom; fools get stupider by the day.
God’s blessing makes life rich; nothing we do can improve on God.
The rich can be sued for everything they have, but the poor are free of such threats.
Hard work always pays off; mere talk puts no bread on the table.
Valuables are safe in a wise person’s home; fools put it all out for yard sales.
Pound on a fool all you like— you can’t pound out foolishness.
