Quote by Salina Christmas

“And then my father saw it. First the green eyes. Then the massive head, a white patch on the forehead, and white fur framing the face. Then he saw the teeth. Horrific, sharp teeth. Finally, he saw the monster in its entirety. The tiger. But instead of speeding towards them on all fours, it was sprinting on two legs like a human being.”

“The self is a story of who you are. The biological body has no ability to make up any stories, and consciousness has no need to do so. The practical mind merely goes about its business of making practical decisions and thinking without unnecessary emotions. But the self has been forged by millions of years of ideas, experiences, culture, history, biology, evolution, teachers, nature, education, religion, and all manner of influences.”
