8 -------------------------------------------------------------------- People : ---------------------------------- Author : Max Stirner : The Ego and Its Own Text : ---------------------------------- The first creation, on the other hand, must come forth "out of nothing" - the spirit has toward its realization nothing but itself, or rather it has not yet even itself, but must create itself; hence its first creation is itself, the spirit. Mystical as this sounds, we yet go through it as an everyday experience. Are you a thinking being before you think? In creating the first thought you create yourself, the thinking one; for you do not think before you think a thought, or have a thought. Is it not your singing that first makes you a singer, your talking that makes you a talker? From : Part 1, Chapter II, Section 2, Sub-Section 1.
