A foolish son is the calamity of his father: and the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.

It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman in a wide house.

It is better to dwell in the wilderness, than with a contentious and an angry woman.

A continual dropping in a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike.

He that delicately bringeth up his servant from a child shall have him become his son at the length.
