Children’s children are the crown of old men and the glory of children are their fathers.

Whoever mocks the poor insults his Maker and he that rejoices over calamities shall not go unpunished.

A wicked person listens to false words and a liar gives ear to a naughty tongue.

A wise servant shall have rule over a disgraceful son and have part of the inheritance along with the children.
