more assiduity, more wisdom
He used to say:-More flesh, more worms; more wealth, more care; more women, more witchcraft; more maidservants, more lewdness; more menservants, more thieving; more Torah, more life; more assiduity, more wisdom; more counsel, more understanding; more charity, more peace; he who has acquired a good name acquired it for himself. He who has acquired words of Torah has acquired for himself the life of the world to come.
