I is someone else

It’s wrong to say, “I think”; One should say, “I am thought”. I is someone else. I am present at the birth of my thought: I watch and I listen: I draw a stroke of the bow: The symphony stirs in the depths, or comes with a leap to the stage. It began with waves of disgust, and it ends—-as we can’t immediately seize this eternity—-; It ends with a riot of perfumes. - Arthur Rimbaud
