Really Yours

"There's nothing that you believe that is your own. There's nothing that you think that is your own. Everything you say and do is because of other people, the way you've been brought up. What you've got to do is find out what is really yours in the way of what you think and what you believe."
(F. M. Alexander, in: An Examined Life: Marjory Barlow and the Alexander Technique)
