Where does personality end and brain damage begin?
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Much of what we now consider 'personality' will be explained away as structural and chemical functions of the brain.
Personality is reduced and deformed with depleted thoughts and stagnant mind.
Personality is less a finished product than a transitive process. While it has some stable features, it is at the same time continually undergoing change.
We continue to shape our personality all our life. If we knew ourselves perfectly, we should die.
Personality has power to uplift, power to depress, power to curse, and power to bless.
When new turns of behavior cease to appear in the life of the individual, its behavior ceases to be intelligent.
The defects and faults of the mind are like wounds in the body; after all imaginable care has been taken to heal them up, still there will be a scar left behind, and they are in continual danger of breaking the skin and bursting out again.
A person's current personality of love, hatred, jealousy, rage or a murderous intent and so on is formed upon genetic elements, education, the environment and a family a person grows in.
What one discovers in life, I find, is that one's personality defects don't come and go.
Personality is immediately apparent, from birth, and I don't think it really changes.
