“To study and constantly, is this not a pleasure? To have friends come from far away places, is this not a joy? If people do not recognize your worth, but this does not worry you, are you not a true gentleman?”
“When you know a thing, to hold that you know it; and when you do not know a thing, to allow that you do not know it--this is knowledge.”
“Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance.”
“He Who Knows And Knows That He Knows Is A Wise Man - Follow Him;He Who Knows Not And Knows Not That He Knows Not Is A Fool - Shun Him”
“Care not for want of place; care for thy readiness to fill one. Care not for being unknown, but seek to be worthy of note.”
“A man should demand much from himself, but little from others. When you meet a man of worth, think how you may attain to his excellence. When you meet an unworthy one, then look within and examine yourself.”
