One sip of wine is an antidote against death, cupfuls poison life.
One spark is enough to burn a hundred worlds.
Our real grave is not in the ground but in men's hearts.
Sometimes the body becomes healthy by being very sick.
Stretch your foot to the length of your blanket.
Taking the first step with the good thought, the second with the good word, and the third with the good deed, I enter paradise.
The arrow that has left the bow never returns.

The drowning man is not troubled by rain.
The earth is a host who kills his guests.
The eyes can do a thousand things that the fingers can't.
The fool's excuse is bigger than the mistake he made.
The guard's sleep is the lamplight of the thief.
The halfwit spoke, and the brainless believed.
