6. 远水难救近火，远亲不如近邻。有茶有酒多兄弟，急难何曾见一人！人情似纸张张薄，世事如棋局局新。

6. Far water can't quench a nearby fire, and distant relatives are not as good as nearby neighbors. Having tea and wine brings many brothers, but in times of urgent need, no one has ever appeared!

7. 妻贤夫祸少，子孝父心宽。

15. 心地上天波涛，随处皆风恬浪静。性天中有化育，触处见鱼跃鸢飞。

15. The heart, like the sky, is undisturbed by waves and calm wherever it goes. Within the nature of the mind, there is the power of creation and nurturing; wherever one touches, one sees fish leaping and kites flying.

16. 没有正派的人与之交往，那么这个人就一定是个奸诈之徒；没有贫困的亲友与之来往，那么这个家庭就一定很势利。

17. 积金千两，不如多买经书。养子不教如养驴，养女不如养猪。

18. 无钱休入众，遭难莫寻亲。平生莫做皱眉事，世上应无切齿人。

18. Without money, don't seek the crowd; in trouble, don't turn to your relatives.

19. When you encounter things that don't go your way, don't blush or feel embarrassed. Just hold it in and deal with it after you've had a good sleep.

20. 除了自我反省之外，再也没有能胜过他人的方法；除了自我发奋之外，再也没有超过别人的方法。

27. Emerging from the mire without being stained, understanding subtleties without using them, when one attains one's desires, it is wise to turn back early, and when one's heart is disturbed, do not give up at once. Keep an open mind in front of you, and your grace will last forever after death. If one can have a sincere and composed heart, it is better than regulating one's breathing and observing one's mind. The wealthy should give generously, the wise should not show off, and if one can put one's heart at ease, one can transcend the ordinary. Knowing how to take a step back and give an extra effort, leave a virtuous reputation for the heavens and the earth, and an elegant name for the universe. First conquer the demon within your own heart, then control the wild by calming your own spirit. Do not touch the desires on the path of desire, and do not retreat on the path of reason. Transcend beyond the heavens and the earth, and do not get involved in the pursuit of fame and wealth. Stand a step higher in life and retreat a step in dealing with the world. Cultivate virtue by forgetting fame and fortune, and study with a profound mind. A good person has a warm and gentle demeanor, while an evil person exudes a fierce aura. To avoid祸 from the bright, do not anger the unseen. Read the noble texts in your heart, and listen to the wonderful music of truth. The pursuit of fame and wealth often leads to vulgarity, and empty displays of temperament are always empty. The heart must be bright, and thoughts should not be dark. The gentleman contemplates danger in times of safety, and heaven does not use its techniques. Encourage the current endeavor, and plan for future achievements. The gentleman should work even harder in times of adversity and not lose the elegant demeanor. In motion, true tranquility is found, and true joy is seen in hardship. Remember the difficulty of accumulation, and often reflect on the ease of collapse. Do not change your conduct lightly, and do not expose your talents too openly. Understand the essence of the world, bear the great responsibility of the world, and leave room for everything. If you do so, you will avoid misfortune and regret. Do not fear people's jealousy, and do not fear people's slander. Do not confuse merit and demerit, and do not overemphasize kindness and resentment. The marvels of nature are beyond the reach of intelligence and cunning. A single thought can move ghosts and gods, and a single action can move the heavens and the earth. Literature and culture are not as good as simplicity, and reading the present is not as good as discussing the past. A kind heart brings prosperity to descendants, and a solid root brings glory to branches. The way is just and无私, and learning should be vigilant with every matter. Trust people and show your sincerity, and suspect people to reveal your deceit. Kindness should start from oneself and then extend to others, and severity should come first and then leniency. Do not be tied to desires, and be in harmony with the essence. If you can endure and endure, you will achieve the realm of freedom. It is better to be killed by a small person than to be tolerated by a gentleman. Slander is like clouds covering the sun, and sweet words are like wind permeating the skin. Read until you are happy, and observe things until you reach a transcendent state. Use harmony to promote righteousness and modesty to inherit fame and fortune. Many speakers do not pay attention to their actions, and readers may not truly understand. It is valuable to enjoy the natural charm, and the scenery is not far away. Keep your heart calm and the essence will be revealed, and the water will be clear and the moon's reflection will be bright. It is better to observe the heart than the form, and spiritual use is more than tangible use. Cultivate tranquility and stillness, and you will not be disordered when faced with change. The humble and vulgar are not as good as the elegant and refined, and simplicity is better than richness. Emotions of joy and sorrow, choices, are all influenced by physical and spiritual aspects. The world is constantly changing, and one must be indifferent to everything. There are no absolute things in the world, and comfort is just ordinary. Live according to your nature, and it is better to be an ordinary person than a noble one. Although desires have different levels, struggles for wealth are the same. Do not be enslaved by thoughts, and let things go with the flow. When the mind and body are one, clouds will stay and birds will accompany you. The fallen leaves nurture the buds, and life is hidden in the severe winter. Reading in the snow night clears the mind, and looking from the mountain opens the heart. Do not waste your physical and spiritual energy, and enjoy the fun of wind and moon. Observe things with self-satisfaction, and do not linger in the scenery.

28. 生事事生何日了，害人人害几时休。冤家宜解不宜结，各自回头看后头。

33. 学习知识要善于思考，思考，再思考，我就是靠这个方法成为科学家的。

36. 虎死不变形，狼死不变性。

37. 敏于事，慎于言。说话要用脑子，话多无益，很多事成也是嘴，败也是嘴。平时一定要把好门，否则会给自己带来许多麻烦。讲话不要只顾一时痛快、信口开河，以为人家给你笑脸就是欣赏，没完没了的把掏心窝子的话都讲出来，结果让人家彻底摸清了家底。还得偷着笑你。

37. Be careful in your actions and cautious in your words. Speak with your mind, as more words are not necessarily beneficial. Many things are achieved with words and can also be lost with them. You must always be careful in your speech in everyday life; otherwise, it may bring you many troubles. Don't just speak for the sake of immediate satisfaction or let your words flow carelessly, thinking that a smile from others is appreciation. Don't keep spilling your innermost thoughts endlessly, as the result will be that others completely understand your situation. And they might even secretly laugh at you.

38. 马行无力皆因瘦，人不风流只为贫。饶人不是痴汉，痴汉不会饶人。

38. The horse moves with no strength because it's thin, and people lack charm because they are poor. To give others leeway is not to be a fool, but a fool does not know how to give others leeway.

39. 人生一世，草木一春。黑发不知勤学早，转眼便是白头翁。

40. 丹砂岂是千年药，白日难消两鬓霜。身后碑铭徒自好，眼前傀儡任他忙。
