"Wisdom with riches is more useful and more advantageous, for those who see the sun."
— Ecclesiastes 7:12, Catholic Public Domain Version
“For wisdom is a defence, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom giveth life to them that have it.”
“For wisdom is a defence, even as money is a defence; but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom preserveth the life of him that hath it. ”
“For wisdom is a defense, even as money is a defense; but the excellency of knowledge is that wisdom preserves the life of him who has it.”
“For wisdom provides protection, just as money provides protection. But the advantage of knowledge is this: Wisdom preserves the life of its owner.”
“Wisdom with riches is more profitable, and bringeth more advantage to them that see the sun.”
“Wisdom keeps a man from danger even as money does; but the value of knowledge is that wisdom gives life to its owner.”
“For wisdom is a defence, and money is a defence: but the excellency of knowledge is, that wisdom giveth life to them that have it.”
The end of a speech is better than the beginning. Patience is better than arrogance.
Do not be quickly moved to anger. For anger resides in the sinews of the foolish.
You should not say: “What do you think is the reason that the former times were better than they are now?” For this type of question is foolish.
Wisdom with riches is more useful and more advantageous, for those who see the sun.
For as wisdom protects, so also does money protect. But learning and wisdom have this much more: that they grant life to one who possesses them.
Consider the works of God, that no one is able to correct whomever he has despised.
In good times, enjoy good things, but beware of an evil time. For just as God has established the one, so also the other, in order that man may not find any just complaint against him.
