Citazioni
To know what you know and what you do not know, that is true knowledge.
At fifteen, I set my heart on learning; at thirty, I firmly took my stand; at forty, I had no delusions; at fifty, I knew my destiny; at sixty, my ears were attuned; at seventy, I followed my heart's desire without overstepping the line.
