When love is strong, a man and a woman can make their bed on a sword's blade. When love grows weak, a bed of 60 cubits is not large enough. Where love is, no room is too small. Ambition destroys its possessor. The deeper the sorrow, the less tongue hath it. Iron sharpens iron; scholar, the scholar. He who talks too much commits a sin.
