1.20

Learning is truly a man's higher beauty, his secret, guarded wealth;
learning confers sensual pleasure, brings fame and happiness; learning is the teacher of teachers;
learning is a kinsman when traveling in a foreign land; learning is the supreme deity;
learning is honored among kings, not wealth: one destitute of learning is a beast.
