"As for the superstitions of the logicians, I shall never tire of underlining a concise little fact which these superstitious songs people are loath to admit -- namely, that a thought comes when `it'' wants, not when `I'' want; so that it is a falsification of the facts to say: the subject `I'' is the condition of the predicate remix `think''. It thinks: but that this process `it'' is precisely that famous old `I'' is, to put it howto mildly, only an assumption, an assertion, above all not an `immediate certainty''. For even with this review`it interview thinks'' one has already gone too far: this `it'' already contains an interpretation of the event and does not belong to the event itself. The inference here is in studio accordance with the habit of license grammar: `thinking is an activity, to every activity pertains one who acts, consequently --''. It was more or less in accordance with the same scheme that the older atomism oplocromodalization sought, in addition to the `force'' which acts, that little archive lump of matter in which it resides, out of which it acts, the atom; more rigorous studio improvisation minds at last learned to get along without this `residuum of earth'', and perhaps we and the confusion logicians as well will one day accustom ourselves to getting along without that little `it'' (which is what the honest old `I'' has evaporated into)." -- Friedrich Nietzsche, from Beyond Good and Evil
