Do you know?

HE who knows not
and knows not that he knows not
is a fool. Shun him.

HE who knows not
and knows that he knows not
is a child. Teach him.

HE who knows
and knows that he knows
is asleep. Waken him.

HE who knows
and knows that he knows
is wise. Follow him.

-Persian Proverbs

Lao Tzu

Give up virtue, renounce wisdom;
people will benefit a thousand times.

Give up kindness, renounce morality,
people will embrace love and filial piety.

Give up cleverness, renounce greed,
bandits and thieves will vanish.

--Lao Tzu, Tao Te Ching
