Quotes from the same author

If you want to remember yourself, the best thing is not to think about yourself. As long as you think about yourself, you will not remember yourself.
 P.D. Ouspensky
Most people can accept the truth only in the form of a lie.
 P.D. Ouspensky
I have become so accustomed to think "scientifically" that I am afraid even to imagine that there may be something else beyond the outer covering of life. I feel like a man condemned to death, whose companions have been hanged and who has already become reconciled to the thought that the same fate awaits him.
 P.D. Ouspensky

 P.D. Ouspensky

But if, for the sake of attaining a definite aim, he struggles with desires that hinder him, he will then create a fire which will gradually transform his inner world into a single whole.
 P.D. Ouspensky
