ego

ego

ego (plural egos)

1. the self, especially with a sense of self-importance
   • 1998, Eckhart Tolle, A New Earth

     When every thought absorbs your attention completely, when you are so identified with the voice in your head and the emotions that accompany it that you lose yourself in every thought and every emotion, then you are totally identified with form and therefore in the grip of ego. Ego is a conglomeration of recurring thought forms and conditioned mental-emotional patterns that are invested with a sense of I, a sense of self.

2. (psychology, Freudian) the most central part of the mind, which mediates with ones surroundings
   • 1954, Calvin S. Hall, “A Primer of Freudian Psychology”

     In the well adjusted person the ego is the executive of the personality and is governed by the reality principle.

ego (first person, nominative, plural nos)

1. I; first person singular personal pronoun, nominative case
   • Heauton Timorumenos (“The Self-Tormentor”) by Publius Terentius Afer

     Homo sum, humani nihil a me alienum puto.

     I am a man, I consider nothing that is human alien to me.
