"Who what am I? My answer: I am everyone everything whose being-in-the-world affected was affected by mine. I am anything that happens after Iâ€™ve gone which would not have happened if I had not come. Nor am I particularly exceptional in this matter; each â€˜Iâ€™, every one of the now-six-hundred-million-plus of us, contains a similar multitude. I repeat for the last time: to understand me, youâ€™ll have to swallow the world."

-- Salman Rushdie
