"Whoever gets a wife gets a good thing, and has the approval of the Lord."
— Proverbs 18:22, Bible in Basic English
A brother wounded is like a strong town, and violent acts are like a locked tower.
With the fruit of a man's mouth his stomach will be full; the produce of his lips will be his in full measure.
Death and life are in the power of the tongue; and those to whom it is dear will have its fruit for their food.
Whoever gets a wife gets a good thing, and has the approval of the Lord.
The poor man makes requests for grace, but the man of wealth gives a rough answer.
There are friends who may be a man's destruction, but there is a lover who keeps nearer than a brother.
