Altruism is a fog created by sly minds seeking to benefit from the energy and skill of others. Nothing more  (Self Seeking Quotes) When anyone starts out to do something creative - especially if it seems a little unusual - they seek approval, often from those least inclined to give it. But a creative life cannot be sustained by approval, any more than it can be destroyed by criticism - you learn this as you go on  (Self Seeking Quotes) In spite of the honestest efforts to annihilate my I-ity, or merge it in what the world doubtless considers my better half, I still find myself a self-subsisting and alas! self-seeking me  (Self Seeking Quotes) Self-seeking, self-glory, that is not me.
