“We see things not as they are, but as we are ourselves.”

“...you have to leave the island in order to see the island, that we can't see ourselves unless we become free of ourselves, Unless we escape from ourselves you mean, No, that's not the same thing.”

“When we pity ourselves all we see is ourselves. When we have problems, all we see are our problems and that's all what we love of talking about. We don't see the good things in our lives.”

“We can teach ourselves to see things the way they ARE. Only with vision can we begin to see things the way they CAN BE.”

“We read because they teach us about people, we can see ourselves in them,in their problems.And by seeing ourselves in them, we clarify ourselves, we explain ourselves to ourselves, so we can live with ourselves...”

“We are all hypocrites. We cannot see ourselves or judge ourselves the way we see and judge others.”
