About This Quote
Consciousness is a state of existence where subjects are aware of their surroundings and can respond to its demands according to internal and external perceptions. In order for a person to be conscious, he or she must have a brain. The brain is the part of the body that controls consciousness. Consciousness is what allows a person to be aware of things around him or her. Without a brain, a person would be unconscious and unable to respond to his or her surroundings.
