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.
Knowing who you are is the best defense against who they think you are.
-Dodinsky

"Notes from the Underground"
And if you find everything as soon as you look for it, you find it in vain; you look for it in vain.
-Antonio Porchia

Few people know so clearly what they want. Most people can't even think what to hope for when they throw a penny in a fountain.
