535. — It is better to take care of a secret one's self, than to entrust it to others to do so.

536.— It is equally foolîsh to laugh or groan at an inévitable mîsfortune.

537. — There is no restraînt more painful than to be afraid of saying what we thînk.

538. — Generosity consists in depriving ourselves in order to gîve to others.
