Know Thyself.

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

If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.

Sun-Tzu. 544–496 BC.

How can you come to know yourself? Never by thinking, always by doing.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe. 1749-1832.

We don't see things as they are, we see things as we are.
Anaïs Nin. 1903-1977.

"Know thyself" - a maxim as pernicious as it is odious.
