Laotzu's Tao and Wu Wei, Second Edition ยท 1 passage
1st ed. p. 65 SEVENTY-ONE To recognize one's ignorance of unknowable things is mental health and to be ignorant of knowable things is sickness. It is only by grieving over knowable things that we are kept in mental health. The perfect Sage is free from the mental sickness of common people, because he understands his ignorance and grieves over it.
