   • 將畵也，不忍焉；將疆也，不足焉。宜其自責而自恧焉。 [Korean Literary Sinitic, trad.]

     From: 〈自警箴〉, Yi Saek, 1300s

     Jang hoek ya, bul in eon; jang gang ya, bu jok eon. Ui gi jachaek i ja nyuk eon. [Sino-Korean]

     [To stop my bad habits,] I intended to draw a line [to not cross], but I could not bear to do so. I intended to mark a limit, but I was not up to the task. For this, I should have blamed myself and feel shame for myself.
