Most people live in a very restricted circle of their potential being

"Most people live...in a very restricted circle of their potential being. They make use of a very small portion of their possible consciousness, and of their soul's resources in general, much like a man who, out of his whole bodily organism, should get into a habit of using only his little finger."
--William James, The Varieties of Religious Experience (1901)
