Evil enters like a needle and spreads like an oak tree
What one hopes for is always better than what one has
Give advice; if people don't listen, let adversity teach them
When spider webs unite, they can tie up a lion
It is easy to become a monk in one's old age
He who conceals his disease cannot expect to be cured
The fool is thirsty in the midst of water
She who does not yet know how to walk cannot climb a ladder.
One who recovers from sickness soon forgets about God
