What meaning our lives seem to have is the work of a relatively well-constituted emotional system. As consciousness gives us the sense of being persons, our psychophysiology is responsible for making us into personalities who believe the existential game to be worth playing.

Until you reach that point, you are unconscious.' ... In present awareness we are liberated from the past. — Gabor Mate

This wasn't something that could just be medicated out of me - I just hated where I was. — Sophia Amoruso
