The Dow

XXXIII
 
He who knows others is clever;

He who knows himself has discernment.

He who overcomes others has force;

He who overcomes himself is strong.

He who knows contentment is rich;

He who perseveres is a man of purpose.

He who does not lose his station will endure;

He who lives out his days has had a long life.

Tao te ching
D.C. Lau, translator
