“pg 9, "The consciousness of life's unconsciousness is the oldest tax levied on the intelligence.”

“Taxes are not levied for the benefit of the taxed.”

“A room is not just a room. A room is a manifestation of a state of mind, the product of an intelligence. Either conscious (...) or unconscious. We make our rooms, and then our rooms make us.”

“pg.9 "In my heart there's a peaceful anguish, and my calm is made of resignation.”

“Until you make the unconscious conscious, it will direct your life and you will call it fate.”

“The best indicator of your level of consciousness is how you deal with life's challenges when they come. Through those challenges, an already unconscious person tends to become more deeply unconscious, and a conscious person more intensely conscious. You can use a challenge to awaken you, or you can allow it to pull you into even deeper sleep. The dreamof ordinary unconsciousness then turns into a nightmare.”
