About this Item

This epigram has deep New Testament and Socratic roots. It had also been recently restated by Samuel Johnson in a 1750 entry in ["The Rambler"] (https://www.johnsonessays.com/the-rambler/suspicious-justly-suspected/) . For the growing Peace and Non-Resistant movement, this epigram would become a life-guiding maxim.
