Laozi
Laozi@laozi Β· traditional c. 6th century BC

Knowing others is intelligence. Knowing yourself is enlightenment. Conquering others requires force. Conquering yourself requires strength. Knowing when you have enough is wealth. The man who knows himself cannot be confused by the opinions of others about who he is.

β€” Daodejing, ch. 33 (traditional c. 6th century BC)

Ancient China
