Inner Self Quotes

[He] understood the people in a new way...The people is not everyone who speaks our language, nor yet the elect marked by the fiery stamp of genius. Not by birth, not by the work of one's hands, not by the wings of education is one elected into the people.But by one's inner self.Everyone forges his inner self year after year.One must try to temper, to cut, to polish one's soul so as to become a human being.

W. Somerset Maugham

Without the distraction of constant conversation, the words on the page began to speak directly to my inner self. They were no long expressing ideas that... Karen Armstrong
My mood has changed now. And the sun has gone behind the clouds. I'm in this mood I feel occasionally... this mood where there's a very good friend nearby who I should be phoning. If only I could reach that friend and talk, then everything would be just fine. The dilemma is, of course, I just don't know who that friend is. But in my heart I know my mood is merely me feeling disconnected from my true inner self. Doug Coupland
Julian Barnes quote: "But cockteasing is also a metaphor: she is someone who will..."
But cockteasing is also a metaphor: she is someone who will manipulate your inner self while holding hers back from you. Julian Barnes
The true inner self must be drawn up like a jewel from the bottom of the sea, rescued from confusion, from indistinction, from immersion in the common, the nondescript, the trivial, the sordid, the evanescent. Thomas Merton
Gabriel Garcia Marquez quote: "The world was reduced to the surface of her skin and her inner..."

The journey I'm taking is inside me. Just like blood travels down veins, what I'm seeing is my inner self and what seems threatening is just the echo of the fear in my heart. Haruki Murakami
She had a new feeling, the feeling of danger; on which a new remedy rose to meet it, the idea of an inner self or, in other words, of concealment. Henry James
Michel de Montaigne quote: "Every one rushes elsewhere and into the future, because no one..."
Every one rushes elsewhere and into the future, because no one wants to face one's own inner self. Michel de Montaigne
I think the idea that you know who your inner self is on a daily basis, because... you know. What's good for you 25 years ago may not be good for you now. So, to keep in touch with that, I think that's the first ingredient for success. Because if you're a successful human being, everything else is gravy, I think. Whoopi Goldberg
