    O unbelievers,
    I serve not what you serve
    and you are not serving what I serve,
    nor am I serving what you have served,
    neither are you serving what I serve.
    To you your religion, and to me my religion!
    Qur’An. The Unbelievers, 109:1-5, ed. Arthur J. Arberry (1955)

    Consciousness is cerebral celebrity—nothing more and nothing less. Those contents are conscious that persevere, that monopolize resources long enough to achieve certain typical and “symptomatic” effects—on memory, on the control of behavior and so forth.
    —Daniel Clement Dennett (b. 1942)

    The acorn’s not yet
    Fallen from the tree
    That’s to grow the wood,
    That’s to make the cradle,
    That’s to rock the bairn,
    That’s to grow a man,
    That’s to lay me.
    —Unknown. The Cauld Lad of Hilton or, The Wandering Spectre (l. 2–8)
