Do not be wise

Whoever rewards evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house.

A wise man once said, “To be old and wise, first you have to be young and stupid”

Instruct the wise, and they will be even wiser.Teach the righteous, and they will learn even more.

The wise woman builds her house, but with her own hands the foolish one tears hers down.

A wise son hears his father’s instruction, but a scoffer does not listen to rebuke.

Every wise woman buildeth her house: but the foolish plucketh it down with her hands.

A wise son heeds [and is the fruit of] his father’s instruction and correction, but a scoffer listens not to rebuke.

A wise correction to a receptive ear is like a gold ring or an ornament of gold.

“A wise man is he who does not grieve for the things which he has not, but rejoices for those which he has.” – Epictetus
