"

Knowing others is intelligence;
knowing yourself is true wisdom.
Mastering others is strength;
mastering yourself is true power.

If you realize that you have enough,
you are truly rich.
If you stay in the center
and embrace death ever.

"

As translated by S. Mitchell, 1995 (via awelcomefuneral)
