82. So That Man may Become Fully Human: Anthroposophy and Agnosticism 12 Apr 1922, The Hague

We would have to see the true form and capacity of this ego and this astral body in retrospect if we saw them not only as dark inclusions, but as realities, as we otherwise perceive realities.
The repeated lives on earth will continue to be experienced until a point in time when the ego will again be so similar in its entire inner makeup to the spiritual world that it will no longer need an earthly life. Thus, when we fully recognize the ego, we look back on repeated earthly lives. In other words, we look at the entire life of a person as proceeding in such a way that we have parts of that life between birth and death or conception and death, other parts between death and a new birth; that is, in repeated earthly lives the person lives out his full existence.

31. Collected Essays on Cultural and Contemporary History 1887–1901: Nietzscheanism 02 Apr 1892,

Nietzsche calls slave morality anything that allows itself to be restricted by any moral principles in the development of its sovereign ego. Only the master morality that says "yes" in moral matters, not because it thinks it is "good", but because it wants to, because it can best assert its individual power in this way, is worthy of humanity.
14. Four Mystery Plays: The Soul's Awakening: Scene 5
Translated by Harry Collison

On thee I ray forth from my fount of light The germs that tend to raise self-consciousness. Go, gather them to make thine ego strong. In later earth-life they will come to flower. There shall the blossoms by thy soul be sought; In its own nature it will take delight When it can joy in planning its desires.
The Riddles of Philosophy: Introduction

[ 1 ] Since the Renaissance natural science proceeds to develop a world conception in which the self-conscious ego must experience itself as a foreign element. The emergence of this experience leads to a new inner struggle in which the fourth phase of the history of philosophy is from now on deeply engaged in its predominant thought currents: It is the phase of consciousness in which we still live.
4. The Philosophy of Freedom (1916): Why the Desire for Knowledge is Fundamental
Translated by R. F. Alfred Hoernlé

He attempts to deduce the whole edifice of the world from the “Ego.” What he has actually accomplished is a magnificent thought-picture of the world, without any empirical content.
4. The Philosophy of Freedom (1964): Human Individuality
Translated by Michael Wilson

[ 10 ] However, we are not satisfied merely to refer the percept, by means of thinking, to the concept, but we relate them also to our particular subjectivity, our individual Ego. The expression of this individual relationship is feeling, which manifests itself as pleasure or displeasure.
45. Anthroposophy, A Fragment (2024): The World that Underlies the Senses
Translated by Steiner Online Library

What strikes the soul in sensory perception is such that the inner life of the ego can be detached from it. From this it can be seen that behind the sensory world, in a supersensible one, there are as many sources of activity as there are sensory organs.
90b. Self-Knowledge and God-Knowledge II: Easter and Theosophy 21 Apr 1905, Berlin

They both surround the physical body, and within it dwells the fourth, the [the ego of the] human being. Let us consider the human being. He has only to do with his self-knowledge and his astral body, but this can be purified. - When we look at an undeveloped person, his etheric and astral body expresses the lower suffering, it rages through him.
90c. Theosophy and Occultism: Rosicrucians, Count St. Germain, French Revolution 11 Sep 1903, Berlin

We will also address issues related to the unification of the human ego with its prepared physical body and various other issues related to the manifestations of the times.
