NOTE 8. Page 43. Personality the ultimate reality. 'There is nothing else except itself, by which we can understand or explain personality. . . . The word suggests, not so much the presence of intelligence, will, &c. , but more eminently the fact of being a centre to which the universe of being appears in relation, a distinct centre of being, a subject, whereof reason, affection, will, consciousness itself, are so many (not separate parts, but) several aspects or activities. . . . Consciousness... is not the ultimate fact in man except when it is tacitly taken as equivalent to self-consciousness, the realization of his own personality. Not the fact that he thinks, but the fact that he is that of which thought-capacity is an aspect or corollary, is the primary datum of all knowledge and thought. He thinks, indeed, likes, wills, acts ; but that central fact of which these all are but so many partial aspects is the fact that he is a self. . . . Personality, involving, as necessary qualities of its being, reason, will, love, is incomparably the highest phenomenon known to experience, and as such has to be related with whatever is above it and LECTURE II.
