"Self-importance is our greatest enemy. Think about it - what weakens us is feeling offended by the deeds and misdeeds of our fellowmen. Our self-importance requires that we spend most of our lives offended by someone."
-- Carlos Castaneda

Hey--thanks for this one. I've been wanting to find this quote for years, but haven't wanted to go digging around in Casteneda to find it!
I feel that with him, as opposed to with Don Juan himself, there's always a little lingering darkness that sticks around like an aftertaste, and I haven't wanted to get in there.
Thank you very much.
Do stick around and comment.
I will!
Goody. I appreciate well-read people.
