An enemy to whom you show kindness becomes your friend, excepting lust, the indulgence of which increases its enmity.
Can a man take fire in his bosom, and his clothes not be burned?
Give not thy strength unto women, nor thy ways to that which destroyeth kings.
Keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman.
The character of a people may be ruined by charity.
