*Phinehas notices the list as he goes to enter the tavern. He pauses in thought and decides to scribble a few words of wisdom of his own.*

"Disturb a wizard's research, and you become the experiment."

"If you toy with magic, it will reciprocate."

"Never show a wizard your dislike, he might express mutual feelings."

"Wizardry is not the study of magic. It is the study of all things, as they apply to magic."

"Judge a warrior by his muscle, and a thief by his agility. Don't even try to judge a wizard."

"How much knowledge does it take to be a powerful wizard? Enough."

"Tria don't make you happy, be happy they make tria!"

Mage's proverb: "Never enchant a weapon to make it invincible. They might hold it against you."

Yeah, I wasn't sure if he was talking about "sex" which doesn't seem to make any sense, or "sacks" which... doesn't seem to make any sense...

Here are some I like:
"If you can find a path with no obstacles, it probably doesn't lead anywhere."
"He who never walks except in other men's tracks, will make no discoveries."
"You have the right to remain stupid. Everything you say can and will be ignored."
"Bigamy is having one wife too many. Monogamy is the same."
"Perception is real, even when it is not reality."
"You can't clear the swamp when you're up to your ass in aligators."
"Never give a sword to a man who can't dance."

Keep them coming, and may fortunes smile bring tears to your eyes.

These are obviously not Yliakum-oriented. In fact, then next-to-last one doesn't even work, seeing as Yliakum has no alligators.
