" The Heart "
I'm amazed at the heart of man: It possesses the substance of wisdom as well as the opposites contrary to it .... for if hope arises in it, it is brought low by covetousness; and if covetousnessis aroused in it , greed destroys it. If despaire possesses it, self-pity kills it; and if it is seized by anger, this is intensified by rage. If it is blessed with contentment, then if forgets to be careful; and if it is filled with fear, then it becomes preoccupied with being cautious. If it feels secure, then it is overcome by vain hopes; and if it is given wealth, then its indenpendence makes it over-extravagant. if want strikes it , then it is smitten by anxiety. If it is weakened by hunger, then it gives way to exhaustion; and if it goes too far in satisfying its appetites, then its inner becomes clogged up. There are four things which make the heart die: wrong action followed by wrong action, playing around with foolish people, spending a lot of time with women, and sitting with the dead, here the question is who are the dead? answer is every slave who follows his desires. Ask your hearts about friendship, for surely it is a witness that cannot be bribed. The best hearts are those that best remember. Surely hearts have desires and they turn toward, and they turn away.... so approach them by means of what they desire and what they turn towards, for surely if the heart is forced to do something against its will, it goes blind. Surely hearts grow tired just as bodies grow tired, so seek out the novelties of wisdom for them. If you have any doubts about a person's friendship then ask your heart about it.
