We carry within us the wonders we seek without us.

Thomas Browne
We carry within us the wonders we seek without us.
We carry within us the wonders we seek without us.
We carry within us the wonders we seek without us.
We carry within us the wonders we seek without us.
About This Quote

The power of not only what’s outside of us, but also what is within us. What we believe to be true, what we think others will think of us, and what we think is true for ourselves are all ideas that are created in our mind. We believe in them completely and in turn, create an image in our mind of ourselves. When we begin to see ourselves in the way others see us, acting in ways that do not reflect who we truly are, it’s easy to start believing the ideas that are the source of all of our fears.
