"He who knows, speaks not; He who speaks, knows not. He closes the mouth, He shuts the doors of the senses. He rounds off angles; He unravels all difficulties. he harmonizes Light. He brings men into Unity. This is called wonderful Unity. Favour and disgrace do not touch him, profit and loss do not affect him, Honour and shame are alike to him, Therefore he is held in high esteem by all men."
