Ecclesiastes 7:7-10
7Surely oppression can turn a wise person into a fool; likewise, a bribe corrupts the heart.
8The end of a matter is better than its beginning; likewise, patience is better than pride.
9Do not let yourself be quickly provoked, for anger resides in the lap of fools.
10Do not say, “Why were the old days better than these days?” for it is not wise to ask that.
