Better a dry piece of bread with peace in it, than a house full of contentious celebrations.
There is nothing better for people than to be happy with their lot in life and do what is right in G-d’s eyes while they are yet alive.
The thoughts of the wise turn to the house of mourning, for it inspires one to repent; the thoughts of a fool turn to the house of feasting.
One who loves money will never be satisfied with money
One who loves money will never be satisfied with money
The thoughts of the wise turn to the house of mourning, for it inspires one to repent; the thoughts of a fool turn to the house of feasting.
One who loves money will never be satisfied with money
One who increases possessions increases his worry
One who uses false scales will eventually become impoverished

One who gives willingly and without resentment will be blessed, for he enjoys giving of his bread to the poor
Death and life are in the power of the tongue
Let another praise you, not your own mouth
As water reflects a face back to a face, so is one’s heart reflected back to him by another
Charm is false and beauty is vain; a woman who fears Hashem is praiseworthy
A friend’s love is for all times; a brother is there in times of adversity
When doubts are resolved, the eyes are enlightened
The purity of metals can be determined by man; only G-d can examine a person’s heart
Like an ornamental garment on a cold day, so is one who sings songs to a sorrowful heart
