It is a crime where there is not consent. It is a felony. And we need to start making sure victims understand that, so they don’t do the self blame  (The Self Quotes) For a person to feel responsible for his actions, he must sense that the behavior has flowed from the self  (The Self Quotes) Revolution begins with the self, in the self... We’d better take the time to fashion revolutionary selves, revolutionary lives, revolutionary relationships. Mouth don’t win the war  (The Self Quotes) To be a socialist means to let the ego serve the neighbour, to sacrifice the self for the whole. In its deepest sense socialism equals service. The individual refrains and the commonwealthdemands  (The Self Quotes) The martyr sacrifices themselves entirely in vain. Or rather not in vain; for they make the selfish more selfish, the lazy more lazy, the narrow narrower  (The Self Quotes) The painter... does not fit the paints to the world. He most certainly does not fit the world to himself. He fits himself to the paint. The self is the servant who bears the paintbox and its inherited contents  (The Self Quotes) Knowledge of the self is the mother of all knowledge.

The boundaries of the self might well be more porous than we ordinarily think  (The Self Quotes) It’s usually the selfish people who are loved the most. They do what you deny yourself, and you love them for it. You give them your heart  (The Self Quotes) The self is a relation which relates itself to its own self, or it is that in the relation that the relation relates itself to its own self; the self is not the relation but that the relation relates itself to its own self  (The Self Quotes)
