6. Teach children how they should live, and they will remember it all their life.

7. Poor people are slaves of the rich. Borrow money and you are the lender's slave.

9. Be generous and share your food to the poor. You will be blessed for it.

10. Get rid of a conceited person, and then there will be no more arguments, quarreling or name-calling.
