"When the people fear no power, Then great power has indeed arrived. Do not disturb them in their dwellings, Do not weary them in their living. It is because you do not weary (pu yen) them, That they are not wearied of you. Therefore the sage knows himself (tzu chih), But does not see himself (tzu chien). He loves himself (tzu ai), But does not exalt himself (tzu kuei). Therefore he leaves that and takes this."
