Oliver Sacks "The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat"
Sacks says:
"We each of us have a 'life-story,' an inner narrative - whose continuity, whose sense, is our lives. It might be said that each of use constructs and lives, a 'narrative,' and that this narrative is us, our identities....Each of us is a singular narrative, which is constructed, continually, unconsciously, by, through, and in us - through our perceptions, our feelings, our thoughts, our actions; and not least, our discourse, our spoken narrations. Biologically, physiologically, we are not so different from each other; historically as narratives - we are each of us unique.
To be ourselves we must have ourselves - possess, if need be reposses, our life-stories. [We] need the continuous inner narrative, to maintain identity." (110-111)
