Quote

That this individual life of all of us is not something limited in its temporal expression to the life that now we experience, follows from the very fact that here nothing final or individual is found expressed.

For the Absolute, as we now know, all life is individual, but is individual as expressing a meaning.

I cannot express it: but surely you and everybody have a notion that there is, or should be, an existence of yours beyond you.

The very purpose of existence is to reconcile the glowing opinion we hold of ourselves with the appalling things that other people think about us.

Every person is the creation of himself, the image of his own thinking and believing. As individuals think and believe, so they are.

We are all members of a single humanity, inside our hearts we all speak the same language, we all love our children and our parents, we all live in the same world.

Every human being is intended to have a character of his own; to be what no others are, and to do what no other can do.

We are increasingly open to understanding how we are all connected and that if we sink the ship that we are all on, we all drown. However, we have simultaneously become so focused on our own life experiences that we think we are alone.

So far as we live and strive at all, our lives are various, are needed for the whole, and are unique.
