Proverb

men hate the truth
but god knows it all
wisdom is to descend
between good and evil
knowledge is to cultivate 
from the ability and potentiality
so sow no violence
and reap no evil
for mistakes are the
cause of failure
the love of wealth
hatred and jealousy
disrespects the integrity 
selfishness and greediness
are the anxieties of hell
and love and kindness
the fantasies of heaven
