"Native Son"
No one remains quite what he was when he recognizes himself.
-Thomas Mann
If you have known yourself, you have known everything else. Know that, by knowing which, you will know everything else. The Bible says, “Seek that kingdom within you.” Once you have found that, then everything else will be automatically added unto you; you don’t have to go looking for things outside; they will all come to you.
-Satchidananda Saraswati "Swami Satchidananda"
The indispensable first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: decide what you want.

I can teach anybody how to get what they want out of life. The problem is that I can't find anybody who can tell me what they want.
-Mark Twain
