What would I do without a mind?
What would I do without a society to shape that mind?
To influence it?
To taint it?
To glorify it?
What would I do without the memories of such glory and such tache?
An orphan on a deserted island, with nothing from the outside world, save the produce of Nature which surrounds me.
I suppose I would be free....

Speechless
How terrifying to imagine a day where I'd have nothing to say!
Terrifying for you maybe, but I am sure to your listeners it would be a beautiful day or vice versa, depending on whether your speech is coveted by them or shunned.
Dear K, Yep, to most activities which we think define us or are an integral part of us. In other words, we really can do without nearly everything. :-)
Dear P, That is always true for anything that a person produces.
Indeed ... and I would probably extend that to all activities :-)
