Instead, moderns proudly identify themselves with their ego and thereby boast of their omnipotence: nowadays most people identify themselves almost exclusively with their consciousness, and imagine that they — C. G. Jung

I have no religious convictions whatsoever. I just believe that the human race is wired, in most cases, to do the right thing.
