Never speak evil of anyone. Keep good company, or none. Live up to your engagements. Never play games of chance. Drink no intoxicating drinks.
Good character is above everything else.
Keep your own secrets, if you have any. Never borrow if you can possibly help it. Do not marry until you are able to support a wife. When you speak to a person, look into his eyes. Save when you are young to spend when you are old.
