Arabian Maxims.

Death is nearer to us than the eyelid is to the eye.
The little which suffices, is better than the much which disturbs us.
The best possession is a sincere friend.
The eulogium made on the absent, serves to incline our hearts to the present.
The best riches is contentment, the worst of poverty is low spirits.
The man who contents himself to-day with that which he has, will content himself to-morrow with that which he may have.
