Tim Storrs
“I know that I'm a human being and that I'm a man and that I am conscious and here...other than that I know nothing.
Admitting that leaves me open to possibly having a better understanding of myself, if I'm fortunate enough.”
Tim Storrs, words from a man that knows nothing: a collection of thoughts and poems

“To get back to the person I am, I had to reject so much of who I was told that I was.”
Allyson Dinneen, Notes From Your Therapist

Eric Overby
“Standing at the edge of my fears
And contemplating them
Is a healthy exercise.
The extent of the boundaries
Of who I believe myself to be.

What is in question as I stand
Safely at the border of myself
And think of leaping
Or continuing on?

What happens when I walk
To the extent of "I"
And then keep walking?
Who am I then?”
Eric Overby, Senses

Cassandra Clare
“You can't concern yourself with that. Certainly it would be wonderful if we all knew who we were. But that knowledge doesn't come from the outside, but from the inside.”
Cassandra Clare, Clockwork Angel

Debasish Mridha
“The best knowledge is knowing yourself and your inner being.”
Debasish Mridha
