He who knows himself is enlightened.

He who knows others is wise. He who knows himself is enlightened.

He who knows that enough is enough will always have enough.

He who knows, does not speak. He who speaks, does not know.

He who obtains has little. He who scatters has much.
Lao Tzu

If the Great Way perishes... there will morality and duty.
When cleverness and knowledge arise ... great lies will flourish.
When relatives fall out with one another ... there will be filial duty and love.
Lao Tzu

In dwelling, live close to the ground.
In thinking, keep to the simple.
In conflict, be fair and generous.
In governing, don't try to control.
In work, do what you enjoy.
In family life, be completely present.
Lao Tzu
