Act judiciously - this is the practical equivalent of Know Thyself. We should not consider any of them as absolute laws or requirements, they were both presented to us like the black of the target board: we must always aim for it, but we cannot always hit it. People would be smarter and happier if they could distinguish between their own limitless goals and the goals set before them by circumstances, and if they learned step by step what their means lead to.

Hungarian

"Cselekedj megfontoltan - ez a gyakorlati megfelelője az Ismerd tenmagadnak. Egyiket sem szabad abszolút törvénynek vagy követelménynek tekintenünk, úgy állították elénk mindkettőt, mint a céltábla feketéjét: mindig arra kell céloznunk, de nem találhatjuk mindig el. Az emberek okosabbak és boldogabbak lennének, ha különbséget tudnának tenni saját határtalan céljuk és a körülmények eléjük szabta célok között, s fokról fokra megtanulnák, mire futja eszközeikből."
