“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

― William Blake, The Marriage of Heaven and Hell

“I must create a system, or be enslaved by another man's. I will not reason and compare: my business is to create.”
