His name is Erich Fromm, I do not remember the work where he wrote it, or the exact words, but it sounds like this:
I am not an engineer, or artist.... etc... I am just a human being.

The purpose of human life is that his/her soul becomes aware ot itself. (Excuse me, I do not remember who said it... Kant... Hegel... hmmmm...?)
I had to google:... from an abstract: https://academic.oup.com/book/468/ch...dFrom=fulltextTo Hegel, absolute knowledge arises when the mind comes to know itself. In other words, when the mind realizes that reality is of its own creation and is not beyond the mind.
From the same googledump:
"We are not human beings having a spiritual experience. We are spiritual beings having a human experience." - Pierre Teilhard de Chardin. I hear this a lot in my faith; have yet to quote it.

i don't know if this quote originated with ravi Zacharias or if its just who im remembering I heard it from:
(this is in no way meant to criticize philosophy as a field of study or as a dedicated approach to life, rather it speaks to a particular aspect of life that's worth considering)
"the philosopher is a blind man in a dark room searching for a black cat that isn't there. the theologian finds the cat."
re: "the philosopher is a blind man in a dark room searching for a black cat that isn't there. the theologian finds the cat."... The physicist finds the philosopher and the theologian and locks them in a chamber with a radioactive source and declares God is neither dead nor alive. God, in His infinite wisdom and love gives the physicist a black cat. - tailor

Not Recomended for persons under the age of 40
When I drink alchocolic drinks I feel no pain, I have optimistic thoughts, this world seems beautiful. But... people around me despise this kind of my nature.
Philosophical quotation by myself.
