“ We are unknown, we knowers, to ourselves…Of necessity we remain strangers to ourselves, we understand ourselves not, in our selves we are bound to be mistaken, for each of us holds good to all eternity the motto, “Each is the farthest away from himself”—as far as ourselves are concerned we are not knowers.
— Nietzche, as quoted in the epigraph of Percy’s Lost in the Cosmos (via portraitoftheartistasayoungman)
