9.31

"With evil words and reviling, / Arrogant and contemptuous toward others— / When one engages in such conduct, / Resentment and enmity will proliferate. / With humble words and agreeable phrases, / Respectful toward others, / Giving up grudges and bearing evil, / Resentment and enmity will naturally be extinguished. / When a man is born, / An axe is within his mouth; / That by which he strikes down his own body / Is due to his evil words."
