“Unlike a drop of water which loses its identity when it joins the ocean, man does not lose his being in the society in which he lives. Man's life is independent. He is born not for the development of the society alone, but for the development of his self.”
B. R. Ambedkar
“Committing yourself is a way of finding out who you are. A man finds his identity by identifying. A man's identity is not best thought of as the way in which he is separated from his fellows but the way in which he is united with them.”
Robert Terwilliger
“Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.”
Oscar Wilde
“I think, tribalism is a mental prison…and pride of identity coupled with arrogance is one of the leading factors that limit one’s ability to abandon it.”
Duop Chak Wuol
“Any life is made up of a single moment, the moment in which a man finds out, once and for all, who he is.”
Jorge Luis Borges
“Your body has a beginning and an end; your body is subject to birth and death; but you, the spark of life within the body, are eternal.”
Science of Identity
“Burning Man is such a huge part of my life and my identity. The things I believe make me a good person are the things I learned at Burning Man.”
