I searched in my heart how to cheer my flesh with wine, my heart yet guiding me with wisdom, and how to lay hold on folly, till I might see what it was good for the sons of men that they should do under heaven all the days of their life.

Better is a poor and wise youth than an old and foolish king, who knoweth not how to receive admonition any more.

For what advantage hath the wise more than the fool? or what hath the poor man, that knoweth how to walk before the living?

The labor of fools wearieth every one of them; for he knoweth not how to go to the city.
