Martha C. Nussbaum
“Another problem with people who fail to examine themselves is that they often prove all too easily influenced.”
Martha C. Nussbaum, Not for Profit: Why Democracy Needs the Humanities

Richard Flanagan
“A good book ... leaves you wanting to reread the book. A great book compels you to reread your own soul.”
Richard Flanagan, The Narrow Road to the Deep North

“To be of the Earth is to know
the restlessness of being a seed
the darkness of being planted
the struggle toward the light
the pain of growth into the light
the joy of bursting and bearing fruit
the love of being food for someone
the scattering of your seeds
the decay of the seasons
the mystery of death and
the miracle of birth.”
John Soos

Abraham H. Maslow
“What is necessary to change a person is to change his awareness of himself.”
Abraham Maslow

“The “I” is a grammatical fiction (Nietzsche). There are bundles of impressions but no underlying self (Hume). There is no survival because there is no person (Buddha, Parfit).”
Max More, The Transhumanist Reader: Classical and Contemporary Essays on the Science, Technology, and Philosophy of the Human Future
