He who knows....

"He who knows others is clever;
He who knows himself has discernment.

He who overcomes others has force;
He who overcomes himself is strong.

He who knows contentment is rich;
He who perseveres is a man of purpose.

He who does not lose his station will endure;
He who lives out his days has had a long life."

- Tao Te Ching


Is it the meaning behind an action that matters or does the end justify the means?

More and more I think both, action and reason, are equally important. However, it seems that the right reasons will produce the right action. Otherwise it seems as if one believes to know the end of a story before ever reading a word.
