“The ego is always looking for support because, essentially, it is very afraid and is constantly failing to give us the happiness it promises. It doesn't know what it is doing. It has delusions of grandeur that unfailingly disappoint. It is a poor guide and companion compared to the spirit, albeit, a loud one. There is a beautiful grandeur in us. If we claim it, we would never again turn to the trifling and pathetic attempts of the ego at grandiosity.” — Donna Goddard
