    Hi,

    "Be not in a hurry for giving punishment to a wrongdoer, but give some opportunity to him to apologize."

    "Oh, my friend, three things are caustic and fatal: poverty after wealth, misery after glory, and loosing your friends."

    Thanks in advance

    Hi, thanks a bunch for editing.

    I have a question for you:

    For what reason have you eliminated "wrongdoer" and its reference?
