You better starve than horrible there,
And better be alone than with just anyone. 13) You can seduce a man who has a wife, you can seduce a man who has a mistress, but you cannot seduce a man who has a beloved woman. 14) Do no evil — will return like a boomerang
Do not spit into the well, to drink water,
Do not insult someone who rank below,
And suddenly I have something to ask.
Do not betray friends, they can not replace,
And don't lose your loved ones — will not return
Do not lie to yourself — with time to test
What this lie yourself you betray.
