For the wise man, like the fool, will not be remembered for very long, because in the days to come, both will already have been forgotten. Alas, the wise man dies -- just like the fool!

Who knows if he will be a wise man or a fool? Yet he will be master over all the fruit of my labor for which I worked so wisely on earth! This also is futile!

So what advantage does a wise man have over a fool? And what advantage does a pauper gain by knowing how to survive?

However, a poor but wise man lived in the city, and he could have delivered the city by his wisdom, but no one listened to that poor man.
