"Who what am I? I am
the sum total of everything that went
before me, of all I have been seen
done, of everything done-to-me. I am
everyone everything whose being-in-
the-world affected was affected by
mine. I am anything that happens
after I've gone which would not have
happened if I had not come. Nor am I
particularly exceptional in this matter;
each "I," every one of the now-six-
hundred-million-plus of us, contains a
similar multitude. I repeat for the last
time: to understand me, you'll have to
swallow a word.
