He who knows and knows that he knows, is a sage, imitate him.
He who knows and does not know that he knows, is asleep, wake him up.
He who does not know and knows that he does not know, is an ignoramus, instruct him.
He who does not know and does not know that he does not know, is a fool, I despise him.
