Self Knowledge Quotes

Don't search for truth far away, for all answers lie deep within you. Self-knowledge is a journey, not a destination. It's the peeling back of layers, to understand what moves you, what frightens you, and what illuminates your soul.

When you truly know yourself, you free yourself from the shackles of ignorance and doubt.

These profound quotes are keys to the doors of consciousness, contemplation, and the search for inner wisdom.
