He who has gotten rid of the disease of "tomorrow" has a chance of achieving what he is here for.
G. I. GurdjieffWithout self knowledge, without understanding the working and functions of his machine, man cannot be free, he cannot govern himself and he will always remain a slave.
G. I. GurdjieffEvery grown-up man consists wholly of habits, although he is often unaware of it and even denies having any habits at all.
G. I. GurdjieffThe degree of consciousness corresponds to the degree of density or the speed of vibrations. The denser the matter, the less conscious it is.
G. I. GurdjieffThere do exist enquiring minds, which long for the truth of the heart, seek it, strive to solve the problems set by life, try to penetrate to the essence of things and phenomena and to penetrate into themselves. If a man reasons and thinks soundly, no matter which path he follows in solving these problems, he must inevitably arrive back at himself, and begin with the solution of the problem of what he is himself and what his place is in the world around him.
