Famous quotes containing the words public and/or awareness:

    [The public has] the habit now of invalidating opinions emanating from me by reference to my age and infirmities.
    James Madison (1751–1836)

    Introspection is self-improvement and therefore introspection is self-centeredness. Awareness is not self-improvement. On the contrary, it is the ending of the self, of the “I,” with all its peculiar idiosyncrasies, memories, demands, and pursuits. In introspection there is identification and condemnation. In awareness there is no condemnation or identification; therefore, there is no self-improvement. There is a vast difference between the two.
    Jiddu Krishnamurti (b. 1895)
