Personhood Quotes : pic 000790560
If you can be absolutely comfortable with not knowing who you are, then what's left is who you are
the Being behind the human, a field of pure potentiality rather than something that is already defined.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000446858
The human person is a unique composite - a unity of spirit and matter, soul and body, fashioned in the image of God and destined to live forever. Every human life is sacred, because every human person is sacred.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000738338
The self is only a threshold, a door, a becoming between two multiplicities
Personhood Quotes : pic 001753519
I feel not a person but an instrument of destiny.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001659309
But a person, I would say, is an individual living really with the world. And 'with' the world, I don't mean in the world- just in real contact, in real reciprocity with the world in all the points in which the world can meet man.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001541975
Each person is a temporary focus of forces, vitalities, and values that carry back to an immemorial past and that reach forward into an unthinkable future.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001331071
Who you are; that is, who you choose to be - your identity, works in your life like an invisible hand.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001065146
But man as a person, the same man, gains mastery over egocentric self-confinement by disclosing a universe in himself ... Personality is a universe, it is filled with universal content.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000890407
A great deal of it is personal. But the persona is, I guess, the out of body experience that takes place. Because I'm not conscious of what the outcome is going to be, I'm only conscious of my intentions, do you know what I'm saying? And even my intentions were simple initially.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000793855
Your being is real and it gets to have everything. It gets to have your preferences, your person, and all of your plans.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001126290
The human person, whose definition serves as the touchstone according to which good must be distinguished from evil, is considered as sacred, in what one might call the ritual sense of the word. It has something of that transcendental majesty which the churches of all times have given to their Gods.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001336154
Man is a flux of states of consciousness, a flow of passing thoughts, each thought of self another self, a myriad thoughts, a myriad selves, a continual becoming but never being, a will-of-the-wisp flitting of ghosts in ghostland.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001696972
Underneath your physical and psychological form, you are one with Life itself, one with Being.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000878210
Meeting the "self" activates the transformation of human consciousness,
Personhood Quotes : pic 000795274
Collision with the Infinite: A Life Beyond the Personal Self
Personhood Quotes : pic 001018383
The self as the essence of individuality is unitemporal and unique; as an archetypal symbol it is a God-image and therefore universal and eternal.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001719086
One could say, with a little exaggeration, that the persona is that which in reality one is not, but which oneself as well as others think one is.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000055791
It is your causal body that is the real you. At the end of each incarnation, it carries the knowledge and karmic patterns of that lifetime, in addition to all of your other previous lifetimes, into your next lifetime.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001389354
The individual may be understood as one particular focal point at which the whole universe expresses itself - as an incarnation of the self, or of the Godhead, or whatever one may choose to call it.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001102887
Within each person is the miracle of a unique consciousness unlike any other in the universe.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001065760
"To be is to do," says the existentialist. "One only becomes real (human) at the point of action."
Personhood Quotes : pic 001310342
People are more than one thing.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001519401
I still do not understand how a corporation can have person-hood if it has no soul and never dies.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000806048
Space and time and boundaries between identities fade away, until all that exists for those brief, endless seconds, is you, one melded person, one self. You. One you, from two fragments of I.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001462392
I am a person. I am Raven Stirling. They are monsters.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001758253
We are alive in all our layers of self and selflessness - individuals becoming one.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000774033
at the core of every individual lies a unit of 'experiencing' which underlies the inconsistencies of the human personality.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000937342
Man can be that which he wishes to be; form and substance, they are but shadows. The mind, the ego, the essence of the god-dream
that is real, that is immortal.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000747382
You are not a singular self. You are a corporation. Inside you is eternity. A human being is not so simple.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001317298
You are not really a noun; you are a verb. You are not really a person; you are a soul in action. You are your embryo, you are your baby, you are your child, you are your adult, and you are your spirit when you pass through this body through this lifetime.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001830688
So long as a person is capable of self-renewal they are a living being.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001178713
The central premise of this book is that the Western psychological notion of what it means to have a self is flawed.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000499456
We never know we are beings till we love. And then it is we know the powers and potentialities of human existence.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000231948
Personalism's insistence that only personality-finite and infinite-is ultimately real strengthened me in two convictions: it gave me metaphysical and philosophical grounding for the idea of a personal God, and it gave me a metaphysical basis for the dignity and worth of all human personality.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001619819
Life is a difficult game. You can win it only by retaining your birthright to be a person.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001038250
No poetic phantasy
but a biological reality,
a fact: I am an entity
like bird, insect, plant
or sea-plant cell;
I live; I am alive.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000812847
The self is not a thing, but a process.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000282196
What is an individual? Just a bit of life shot off from the one Life in the universe-just a bit of love and truth dropped on this globe, just as the globe itself was once a bit of light and heat dropped from the sun.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000194094
Corporeal reality is much more rich and precious than we realize. It feels good to have a body, to surge on currents of emotion, to have nerve endings, mitochondria in our cells, tangible focused energy, the embodiment of light - given a voice.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001088972
Existence, faculties, assimilation - in other words, personality, liberty, property - this is man.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001064381
All persons are contained within a single individual, just as all time is in a moment, and the entire universe is in a grain of sand.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001581676
Birth and death: there was the same consciousness of heightened existence and of her own elevated importance
Personhood Quotes : pic 000388934
There is no essential self that lies pure as a vein of gold under the chaos of experience and chemistry. Anything can be changed, and we must understand the human organism as a sequence of selves that succumb to or choose one another.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000868699
The individual human is still the creature who can wonder, who can be enchanted by a sonata, who can place symbols together to make poetry to gladden our heart, who can view a sunrise with a sense of majesty and awe.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000978910
See. My one act. I might be a person. Beneath the.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001071393
[I]nternalized experiences of selfhood are linked to autobiographical narratives, which are linked to biographies, legal testimonies, and medical case histories, which are linked to forms of therapy and theories of the subject. . .
Personhood Quotes : pic 000393563
I used to be a thing; I'm a person now.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000549132
In early childhood (as, perhaps, after death) a person extends in all directions at the same time, so we can say he still doesn't exist yet- the personality comes into being later, when an attachment to some particular direction appears.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000308251
Life is the unfolding of the latent capacities of the soul.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001618306
This ego - the less there is of it, the nearer I am to that which I really am: the universal body.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000665739
If man be solely a body, its loss indeed ends his identity. But if prophets down the millenniums spake with truth, man is essentially a soul, incorporeal and omnipresent.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000613123
The human life is the only one in which one can experience the Soul [One' own Real Self]. There is no other life form, not even that of the celestial beings that can attain the experience of the Self [Self Realization].
Personhood Quotes : pic 000355372
To exist as an individual means not simply to be numerically distinct from other things but to be a self-pole in a dynamic relationship with alterity, with what is other, with the world.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001512312
The self is the modern substitute for the soul.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001368828
The "I" is a grammatical fiction (Nietzsche). There are bundles of impressions but no underlying self (Hume). There is no survival because there is no person (Buddha, Parfit).
Personhood Quotes : pic 000138615
The human form is a microcosm of the universe. All that supposedly exists outside us in reality exists in us. The world is in you and can become known in you, as you.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001299425
The self was both its origins and its journey.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000486967
You don't have to be human to be a person. I mean you don't have to be human to be somebody. I don't know you that well, but you seem like way more of a somebody than lots of humans I know! Really.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000729498
We first develop the Ego, then encounter the Soul, and finally give birth to a unique sense of Self.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000791434
You live in your body, but your ever-changing body is not who you are. You live through situations, but they come and go and are not who you are. You have thoughts, but the thousands of thoughts that pass through your mind are not who you are. Remaining
Personhood Quotes : pic 001613342
To be human is to have a collection of memories that tells you who you are and how you got there.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001623335
The real man is the one Unit Existence.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001649590
Humans in this world live based on two things: one is on the basis of the Self and the other is on the basis of the egoism.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000185951
A person's authentic nature is a series of shifting, variegated planes that establish themselves as he relates to different people; it is created by and appears within the framework of his interpersonal relationships.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001501446
Like I'm a person and you're a person, which gives you the right to kill me.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000122601
I am a person before I am anything else. I never say I am a writer. I never say I am an artist ... I am a person who does those things.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000309269
Your own self, your personality and existence are reflected within the mind of each of the people whom you meet, ... into a likeness, a caricature of yourself, which still lives on and appears to be, in some way, the truth about you. Even a flattering picture is ... a lie.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001295038
I live in company with a body, a silent companion, exacting and eternal. He it is who notes that individuality which is the seal of the weakness of our race. My soul has wings, but the brutal jailer is strict.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000225558
The human psyche shows that each individual is an extension of all of existence.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001654281
Individuality realized is the supreme attainment of the human soul, the master-master's work of art. Individuality is sacred.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001823143
There are three people in yourself:Who people think you are, Who you think you are, and who you really are.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001469805
People is all everything is, all it has ever been, all it can ever be.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001418513
A man's Self is the sum total of all that he can call his, not only his body and his psychic powers, but his clothes and his house.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000634611
The essential Not-self could be perceived very clearly in things and in living
creatures on the hither side of good and evil. In human beings it was visible only when they were in
repose, their minds untroubled, their bodies motionless.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000334222
This is the essence for every human being to realize that who they are, essentially, is far more than the physical body and is far more than the mental body, the psychological makeup, the psychological "me" body. Who they are is far deeper than that.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000585610
Have your being outside this body of birth and death and all your problems will be solved. They exist because you believe yourself born to die. Undeceive yourself and be free. You are not a person.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000904987
Beneath our transient physical bodies, we are made up of intelligent light. One's own body of light, the soul, is the most real part of oneself because it lives forever, it doesn't decay and die.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001569138
Only to the extent that someone is living out this self transcendence of human existence, is he truly human or does he become his true self. He becomes so, not by concerning himself with his self's actualization, but by forgetting himself and giving himself, overlooking himself and focusing outward.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000592299
The reality of a person is a deep and hidden thing, buried not only in the invisible recesses of man's own metaphysical secrecy but in the secrecy of God Himself.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001162226
A person is made up of awarenesses. All the awarenesses that have ever been our will ever be exist like barges floating in the ocean.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001807425
You are a person and then you cease to be a person, and a cadaver takes your place.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000750090
Man in his true nature is substance, soul, spirit.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001587689
Man exists, turns up, appears on the scene and only afterwards, defines himself
Personhood Quotes : pic 000113126
I think that in fact by taking on the persona of a human being, you begin to realise that it is all ego, and that beneath that ego is something else, and that something else is a tranquil, nonentity, that we are simply drops of the sea, that we belong to each other.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000714437
Although selfhood depends causally upon the existence of the brain, it amounts to something far more than the brain. This something is vague and intangible, and might best be described, I think, as a semi-fictional narrative that is in constant need of writing, editing, and preserving.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001230119
Existence is Identity, Consciousness is Identification.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000873464
We all think of ourselves as our subjectivity, our consciousness.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000402315
We have so exalted a notion of the human soul that we cannot bear to be despised, or even not to be esteemed by it. Man, in fact, places all his happiness in this esteem.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001484023
I describe myself as a human being.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001511390
You are your own stories and therefore free to imagine and experience what it means to be human ... And although you don't have complete control over the narrative (no author does, I can tell you), you could nevertheless create it.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000126077
The human being is flesh and consciousness, body and soul; his heart is an abyss which can only be filled by that which is godly.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000012005
Every individual human being born on this earth has the capacity to become a unique and special person, unlike any who has ever existed before or ever will exist again.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000906471
It's naive to think that anyone is just one person, that there's a real you. What is real? You can only exist in one moment, and then that moment is gone. And there's a new moment, a new you. And you can't even say you're the sum of all your parts, because you can never be all your parts at once.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001166301
A person is not the same in his life at all times. Your consciousness is developing all the time. When I started making 'El Topo,' I was one person. When I finished that picture, I was another person.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000875271
The perception of identity is so intimately bound up with the perception of the human form.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001322612
The existent individual, as Kierkegaard defines him, is first of all he who is in an infinite relationship with himself and has an infinite interest in himself and his destiny. Secondly, the existent individual always feels himself to be in Becoming, with a task before him;
Personhood Quotes : pic 001707077
Existence has no personality. No question of personalities, it simply is whatsoever it is. To experience existence as it is, is to know the truth.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001743609
Every person with whom you interact is a part of the person you are becoming. Not a single interaction with a single person is left out of the process of your becoming.
Personhood Quotes : pic 001775799
I once wanted to be a personage. Now I am comfortable being a person.
Personhood Quotes : pic 000432100
It is through the human figure that I best succeed in expressing the nearly religious feeling that I have towards life.
