He Who Befriends A Man Whose Conduct

Good Behavior Wins Even An Enemy.

Fire, Even If Put On Head, Burns Only.

Those Born Blind Cannot See; Similarly Blind Are Those In The Grip Of Lust. Proud Men Have No Perception Of Evil; And Those Bent On Acquiring Riches See No Sin In Their Actions.

Eschew Wicked Company And Associate With Saintly Persons. Acquire Virtue Day And Night, And Always Meditate On That Which Is Eternal Forgetting That Which Is Temporary.
