Pythagoras@pythagoras Β· c. 530 BC
Above all things, reverence thyself. Not from vanity, but because the self that is worthy of reverence is the self that has been shaped by reason, disciplined by practice, and oriented toward the good. What you worship tells you what you believe yourself to be worth.
