Cease from practice based on intellectual understanding, pursuing words, and following after speech, and learn the backward step that turns your light inward to illuminate your self. Body and mind of themselves will drop away, and your original face will be manifest.
- Dogen
Reality is not only stranger than we suppose but stranger than we can suppose.
- J. B. S. Haldane
No theory of reality compatible with quantum theory can require spatially separate events to be independent.
- J.S. Bell
The power of Thought, the magic of the Mind!
- Lord Byron
Although each of us obviously inhabits a separate physical body, the laboratory data from a hundred years of parapsychology research strongly indicate that there is no separation in consciousness.
- Russell Targ

never mind, i figured out the last quote. I've always heard that before in a different form, we are one. I've never really understood it, just only as a corny line. But I realized that it is very true. Our minds are only separated, if there is someway to join our minds, we would exist within each other. How would you define consciousness? mind, awareness, soul, identity, ego?

Really beautiful quotes, especially the first and last ones. But as beutifull as they are, it is kinda confusing. Do you mind breaking it down for me please?
