"Knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is..." - Quote by Lao Tzu

“Those who know when to halt are unharmed.”

“When the intelligent and animal souls are held together in one embrace, they can be kept from separating.”

“He who hoards much loses much.”

“The brave man is not the one who has no fears, he is the one who triumphs over his fears.”

“He who cannot establish dominion over himself will have no dominion over others.”

“He who cannot command himself should obey. And many can command themselves, but much is still lacking before they can obey themselves.”

“Knowledge studies others, wisdom is self known.”

“Life is better lived than conceptualized. — This writing can be less demanding should I allow myself to indulge in the usual manipulating game of role creation. Fortunately for me, my self-knowledge has transcended that and I’ve come to understand that life is best to be lived — not to be conceptualized. If you have to think, you still do not understand.”

“To know oneself is not necessarily to improve oneself”
