"When the people are not awed by authority, then great authority is attained. Their homes are not small to them, their livelihood not tiresome. Just because they do not tire of it, it is not tiresome to them. Therefore sages know themselves but do not see themselves. They take care of themselves but do not exalt themselves. So they take one and leave the other."
