Ego is the great enemy. Ego will hold you back every single time.

Everyone has egos, and you want to come out on top. You have to pick yourself up and go at it again.

The ego is only an illusion, but a very influential one. Letting the ego-illusion become your identity can prevent you from knowing your true self. Ego, the false idea of believing that you are what you have or what you do, is a backwards way of assessing and living life.

I don't have an ego; I'm not egotistical or anything like that.

The ultimate aim of the ego is not to see something, but to be something.

When people get taken over by the ego to such an extent, there is nothing else in their mind except the ego. They can no longer feel or sense their humanity - what they share with other human beings, or even with other life forms on the planet. They are so identified with concepts in their minds that other human beings become concepts as well.

The older that we get and the different stages we go through in life, it seems like we become different people. But I think that the truth is you are always the same person. You just discover these new things about yourself.

Ego is the immediate dictate of human consciousness.

You get tangled up in your own ego of how you're perceived. You can lose your way.

To me the ego is the habitual and compulsive thought processes that go through everybody's mind continuously. External things like possessions or memories or failures or successes or achievements. Your personal history.
