Self consciousness Quote by Yevgeny Zamyatin

“I feel myself. But it's only the eye with a lash in it, the swollen finger, the infected tooth that feels itself, is conscious of its own individual being. The healthy eye or finger or tooth doesn't seem to exist. So it's clear, isn't it? Self-consciousness is just a disease.” quote by Yevgeny Zamyatin
