Tao Te Ching ~ The Dao ~ Lao Tzu's Path Of Life 
Tao Te Ching

by Lao Tzu

 

Part One  || Part Two

~ 33 ~

He who knows other men is discerning; he who knows himself is intelligent. He who overcomes others is strong; he who  overcomes himself is mighty. He who is satisfied with his lot is rich; he who goes on acting with energy has a firm will.

He who does not fail in the requirements of his position, continues long; he who dies and yet does not perish, has longevity.
