“Everything I'm not makes me everything I am”

“For everything that reminds me of who I am, there's always something reminding me of who I'm not.”

“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'm gone which would not have happened if I had not come.”

“I am not absentminded. It is the presence of mind that makes me unaware of everything else.”

“I am going to make everything around me beautiful - that will be my life.”

“Do you have to make me feel like there's nothing left of me? You can take everything I have, you can break everything I am, like I am made of glass, like I am made of paper.Go on and try to tear me down I will be rising from the ground like a Skyscraper...”
