“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.”

“There are few people whom I really love, and still fewer of whom I think well.

― Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice
