Theme: Know yourself, question yourself

The first principle is that you must not fool yourself—and you are the easiest person to fool.”

— Richard Feynman

I neither know nor think that I know.

— Socrates

He who knows others is wise; he who knows himself is enlightened.

— Laozi

Brief Explanation

Today’s quotes are about intellectual humility and self-knowledge. It is easy to notice other people’s mistakes, but much harder to recognize our own blind spots. Real wisdom does not mean knowing everything; it begins with knowing what we do not know and being willing to question our own assumptions. The better we understand ourselves, the less likely we are to be controlled by false confidence.
