You can have your ego trimmed or removed, as you wish, just like a wart or bunion.

I see myself forever and ever as the ridiculous man, the lonely soul, the wanderer, the restless frustrated artist, the man in love with love, always in search of the absolute, always seeking the unattainable
Henry Miller
Image
I am positively against all this crap which is carried on first in the name of this thing, then in the name of that. I believe only in what is active, immediate, and personal.

Image
I had no more need of God than He had of me, and if there were one, I often said to myself, I would meet Him calmly and spit in His face.
