Bhagavad Gita 3.27 — Ego thinks 'I am the doer'

प्रकृतेः क्रियमाणानि गुणैः कर्माणि सर्वशः। अहङ्कारविमूढात्मा कर्ताहमिति मन्यते ॥

prakṛteḥ kriyamāṇāni guṇaiḥ karmāṇi sarvaśaḥ | ahaṅkāravimūḍhātmā kartāhamiti manyate ||

Meaning

All actions are actually done by the qualities of nature, but a person confused by ego thinks, 'I am the doer.'
