ran across these this morning, in Proverbs 17:
"better is a dry morsel with quietness than a house full of feasting with strife"
"the refining pot is for silver and the furnace for gold, but the Lord tries the hearts"
"a bribe is like a bright, preccious stone that dazzles the eyes and affects the one who gives it; they prosper, whichever way they turn"
"whoever repays evil for good, evil shall not depart from his house"
"a friend loves at all times and is born, as is a brother, for adversity"
"the father of an empty-headed fool has no joy in him"
"he who has knowledge spares his words, and a man of understanding has a cool spirit"
"even a fool when he holds his peace is considered wise; when he closes his lips he is esteemed a man of understanding"
