Ego Quotes

Every person needs to feel significant. We want our lives to count. We yearn to believe that in some way we are important and that hunger for significance-a drive as intense as our need for oxygen-doesn't come from pride or ego. It comes from God because he wants each of us to understand how important we are. ... We must seek our roots, our origin, and our destiny so that we can know our present value. ..... ...We can help each other realize that we are persons of significance being made in the image of God.
R. C. Sproul

They are so identified with concepts in their minds that other human beings become concepts as well.
Eckhart Tolle

Alex Grey

Our ego seeks to understand everything. It wants all the answers. Part of what destroys the ego and connects us with the light is doing things that absolutely don't make any sense. If we want something beyond logic, like a miracle, we have to do something that is beyond logic.
Yehuda Berg
-
To say it very honestly, removed from ego, standup is just a thing that I understood, a God-given ability.

Mr. LaLanne said he performed his exercises until he experienced 'muscle fatigue,' lifting weights until it was impossible for him to continue. It produced results and, as he put it, 'the ego in me' made the effort worthwhile.
Jack LaLanne

We all, if we go with ego I go or you go ego thing, it's got to be free from all of that and just roll, because music is a spiritual thing. It's got to come through us and can't just hit us.

Dr. John
