He who has wealth has friends and relations; he alone survives and is respected as a man.

Wealth, a friend, a wife, and a kingdom may be regained; but this body when lost may never be acquired again.

Knowledge is lost without putting it into practice; a man is lost due to ignorance; an army is lost without a commander; and a woman is lost without a husband.

Women have hunger two-fold, shyness four-fold, daring six-fold, and lust eight-fold as compared to men.

Do not put your trust in a bad companion nor even trust an ordinary friend, for if he should get angry with you, he may bring all your secrets to light.

Perfection can be achieved only through devotion (to the Supreme Lord) for devotion is the basis of all success.
