We’re not really here

“Even in the most insignificant details of our daily life, none of us can be said to constitute a material whole, which is identical for everyone, and need only be turned up like a page in an account-book or the record of a will; our social personality is a creation of the thoughts of other people.” – Marcel Proust, Swann’s Way (trans. Moncrieff and Kilmartin)
