Pleasures destroy the foolish, if they look not for the other shore; the foolish by his thirst for pleasures destroys himself, as if he were his own enemy.

Rouse thyself! do not be idle!

Do not live on in thoughtlessness!

They who are ashamed of what they ought not to be ashamed of, and are not ashamed of what they ought to be ashamed of, such men, embracing false doctrines enter the evil path.

Be not thoughtless, watch your thoughts!

Those who are in earnest do not die, those who are thoughtless are as if dead already.
