About This Quote

There are many people who still believe that they are nothing more than a collection of cells or chemicals. They have no idea of the true difficulty of being conscious. Many people have lost their sense of self, have become nothing more than a single cell in the brain. And yet, they are so aware of their own existence, so certain that they are not just a collection of chemicals or cells, that they barely notice the wonder of being conscious.
