I Am That I Am Quotes

...I do not tell you often enough, dear Mother, how very grateful I am that I am yours. It is a rare parent

Civilized Man says: I am Self, I am Master, all the rest is other--outside, below, underneath, subservient. I own, I use, I explore, I exploit, I control. What I do is what matters. What I want is what matter is for. I am that I am, and the rest is women & wilderness, to be used as I see fit.

- Ramana Maharshi

Mighty proud I am that I am able to have a spare bed for my friends.

The either/or vs. the both/and views of objective reality & truth determine God to either exist in confinement or free to be who He is, I Am That I Am.
