5.0★★★★★
The start of a quarrel is like a leak in a dam, so stop it before it bursts.
Don’t jump to conclusions—there may be a perfectly good explanation for what you just saw.
It’s a mark of good character to avert quarrels, but fools love to pick fights.
Stay calm; mind your own business; do your own job. You’ve heard all this from us before, but a reminder never hurts. We want you living in a way that will command the respect of outsiders, not lying around sponging off your friends.
A gentle response defuses anger, but a sharp tongue kindles a temper-fire.
Angry people stir up a lot of discord; the intemperate stir up trouble.
A quarrelsome person in a dispute is like kerosene thrown on a fire.
The person who courts sin marries trouble; build a wall, invite a burglar.
Moderation is better than muscle, self-control better than political power.
Slowness to anger makes for deep understanding; a quick-tempered person stockpiles stupidity.
Arrogant know-it-alls stir up discord, but wise men and women listen to each other’s counsel.
Smart people know how to hold their tongue; their grandeur is to forgive and forget.
