Overcoming Ego

"Would you like to save the world from the degradation and destruction it seems destined for? Then step away from shallow mass movements and quietly go to work on your own self-awareness. If you want to awaken all of humanity, then awaken all of yourself. If you want to eliminate the suffering in the world, then eliminate all that is dark and negative in yourself. Truly, the greatest gift you have to give is that of your own self-transformation."

- Lao Tzu
"I hold three treasures close to my heart. The first is love; the next, simplicity; the third, overcoming ego."

- Lao Tzu
"There is only one corner of the universe you can be certain of improving, and that’s your own self."

- Aldous Huxley
