Where no counsel is, the people fall: but in the multitude of counselors there is safety.

Where no oxen are, the crib is clean: but much increase is by the strength of the ox.

The simple believes every word: but the prudent man looks well where he is going.

Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a fatted ox with hatred.

Where no wood is, there the fire goes out: so where there is no talebearer, the strife ceases.

Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keeps the law, happy is he.
