He who conquers others is strong; He who conquers himself is mighty.

Summary

This quote highlights the true strength and power lies in self-control and self-discipline. While conquering others may display physical strength or dominance, it is overcoming our own inner battles, desires, and weaknesses that truly demonstrates strength and greatness. The ability to control one's own impulses, emotions, and actions requires immense fortitude and inner strength. Thus, the quote suggests that true mightiness comes not from external victories but from inner mastery and self-conquest.
