- That consciousness is everything and that all things begin with a thought. That we are responsible for our own fate, we reap what we sow, we get what we give, we pull in what we put out. I know these things for sure.
- Madonna (1958 - ), O Magazine, January 2004
- Human pain does not let go of its grip at one point in time. Rather, it works its way out of our consciousness over time. There is a season of sadness. A season of anger. A season of tranquility. A season of hope.
- Robert Veninga

- Entropy is the normal state of consciousness - a condition that is neither useful nor enjoyable.
- Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, Flow: The Psychology of Optimal Experience, 1990

- Human consciousness arose but a minute before midnight on the geological clock. Yet we mayflies try to bend an ancient world to our purposes, ignorant perhaps of the messages buried in its long history. Let us hope that we are still in the early morning of our April day.
- Stephen Jay Gould (1941 - 2002)
- That which you call your soul or spirit is your consciousness, and that which you call 'free will' is your mind's freedom to think or not, the only will you have, your only freedom, the choice that controls all the choices you make and determines your life and your character.
- Ayn Rand (1905 - 1982), Atlas Shrugged
- Beware of sentimental alliances where the consciousness of good deeds is the only compensation for noble sacrifices.
- Otto von Bismarck (1815 - 1898), Bismarck and the German Empire by Erich Eyck
- Our deeds are like children that are born to us; they live and act apart from our own will. Nay, children may be strangled, but deeds never: they have an indestructible life both in and out of our consciousness.
- George Eliot (1819 - 1880), Romola, 1863
- We do not die because we have to die; we die because one day, and not so long ago, our consciousness was forced to deem it necessary.
- Antonin Artaud (1896 - 1948)
