Never spend your money before you have it.
Never buy what you do not want, because it is cheap.
Pride costs more than hunger, thirst, or cold.
We never repent of having eaten too little.
Nothing is troublesome that we do willingly.
How much pains have those evils cost us which never happened!
Take things always by their smooth handle.
When angry, count ten before you speak; if very angry, a hundred.
Hear as little as possible spoken against others; and believe nothing of
the kind, until you are absolutely forced to believe it.
Always believe that if you heard what may be said on the other side of
the question, a very different account of the matter might be given.
Do to others what you would have them do to you.

to be with. They are happy themselves, and they make you happy.
2. There are others, whose society you always avoid.
