When Going To The Temple To Adore

Power Is The Near Neighbour Of Necessity.

So In Life, Some Enter The Services Of Fame And Others Money, But The Best Choice Is That Of Those Few Who Spend Their Time In The Contemplation Of Nature, And As Lovers Of Wisdom.

Oh, My Fellow Men, Do Not Defile Your Bodies With Sinful Foods. We Have Corn, We Have Apples Bending Down The Branches With Their Weight, And Grapes Swelling On The Vines. There Are Sweet-flavored Herbs, And Vegetables Which Can Be Cooked And Softened Over The Fire, Nor Are You Denied Milk Or Thyme-scented Honey. The Earth Affords A Lavish Supply Of Riches, Of Innocent Foods, And Offers You Banquets That Involve No Bloodshed Or Slaughter; Only Beasts Satisfy Their Hunger With Flesh, And Not Even All Of Those, Because Horses, Cattle, And Sheep Live On Grass.

Time Is The Soul Of This World.

Do Not Spend In Excess Like One Who Is Careless Of What Is Good, Nor Be Miserly; The Mean Is Best In Every Case.
