Man's possibilities are very great.  You cannot conceive
even a shadow of what man is capable of attaining.
But nothing can be attained in sleep.

In the consciousness of a sleeping man his illusions,
his 'dreams' are mixed with reality.
He lives in a subjective world and he can never escape it.
And this is why he can never make use of all the powers
he possesses and why he always lives in only a small part of himself.

-- Gurdjieff

" . . . and from then on there gradually arose in me that 'something' which has brought the whole of me to the unshakeable conviction that, apart from the vanities of life, there exists a 'something else' which must be the aim and ideal of every more or less thinking man, and that it is only this something else which may make a man really happy and give him real values, instead of the illusory 'goods' with which in ordinary life he is always and in everything full."

"Who am I? I need to know.  If I do not know, what meaning does my life have?  And what in me responds to life?  So, I must try to answer, to see who I am. 

. . . I may begin to suspect that I am not what I believe.

. . . The search for myself begins with questioning . . ."
