Those attributes, linked to a body and psychology persisting through time, consisting in part of an interdependence between my self-conscious thought and my linguistic self-reference, that make me unique as an individual and different from others...WHO?

There is no such thing as the subject that thinks or entertains ideas.

If I wrote a book called The World as I found it, I should have to include a
report on my body, and should have to say which parts were subordinate to my
will, and which were not, etc., this being a method of isolating the subject,
or, rather, of showing that in an important sense there is no subjct; for it
alone could not be mentioned in that book.--
