Imam Ali (a.s.) once said to his son Imam Hasan (a.s.), O son, learn four things from me and you will learn four more through him. Your actions will not harm you if you remember them:
The greatest wealth is wisdom; The greatest poverty is stupidity; The worst antisocials are vanity and self-aggrandizement; and the best nobility of the breed shows itself in politeness and refinement of manner.
The next four things, my son, “Do not befriend a fool because he will harm you when he tries to do you good; Do not make a miser your friend because he will flee from you in your time of need; Befriend a wicked and wicked person.” Do not because he will sell you and your friendship at the cheapest price and do not befriend a liar because like a mirage he will imagine you very close to things far away and make you see things far away.”
