Who knows the spirit of man, whether it goes upward, and the spirit of the animal, whether it goes downward to the earth?"

Better is the end of a thing than its beginning. The patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit.

Do not be hasty in your spirit to be angry, for anger rests in the bosom of fools.

There is no man who has power over the spirit to contain the spirit; neither does he have power over the day of death. There is no discharge in war; neither shall wickedness deliver those who practice it.

If the spirit of the ruler rises up against you, do not leave your place; for gentleness lays great offenses to rest.

and the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to God who gave it.
