And This Above All: To Thine Own Self Be True.

To thine own self, be true.
We've all heard this quotation a lot. Not many of us know whence it came.
This is a line from Hamlet -- Shakespeare's play Hamlet. Hamlet was the prince of Denmark and Shakespeare had read a lot about him, enough to be inspired to write a play around this personality. These lines from the play are one of the most beautiful lines ever written on the subject of building a strong character.
I have explained each line in the reading.
Poem: There, my blessing with thee!

Dear Mr Sathyaish,
This is very good quote.
Without doubt, this will be the first lesson that one should take if one is keen on Self Development.
