The ego isn’t wrong; it’s just unconscious. When you observe the ego in yourself, you are beginning to go beyond it. Don’t take the ego too seriously.

got more than what you deserve.

Before doing any good unto others, it is necessary for a person to know the
difference between soulful happiness and egoistic happiness. If you tamper with
someone's ego, then along with him, even you will be badly trapped.
-Deep Trivedi
He is not obtained by mouthing mere words, but by rooting out ego from within.
-Sri Guru Granth Sahib "Guru Granth Sahib"
Ultimate freedom means to live life freely with ''self-discipline''. Ego means
living by the thousands of disciplines borrowed from vice - virtues, religion and
society.
-Deep Trivedi
If you keep your focus fixed on the 'witness' - the one who is watching rather
than the 'ego' - the doer...your identification with the objects, people and acts will
be severed. The root cause of all the miseries of the world is our attachment with
them.
-Deep Trivedi
There is nothing more "deceitful" than ego in this world. If you want to see,
carefully observe the people who unnecessarily show high moral, talk ethics,
visit temples or strictly follow rituals. Their entire being reverberates ego, yet
they are unaware of it.
-Deep Trivedi
The gulf between I and you is the ego. When the ego is removed the distance disappears and the ‘I’ and ‘you’ also disappear. They merge to become one — and that is love.
-A Spiritual Leader "Mata Amritanandamayi"
