' The Enduring "I"...

What we commonly think of as constituting the "I" is an idea which changes from year to year.

This is the personal "I."

But what we feel most intimately as being always present in all these different ideas of the "I,"

that is, the sense of being, of existence, never changes at all.

It is this which is our true enduring "I."
