“To know who I am is a species of knowing where I stand. My identity is defined by the commitments and identifications which provide the frame or horizon within which I can try to determine from case to case what is good, or valuable, or what ought to be done, or what I endorse or oppose. In other words, it is the horizon within which I am capable of taking a stand.” KnowsTryingI CanDoneCasesKnowingIdentityOughtCapableCommitmentSpeciesDetermineValuableWho I AmDefinedHorizonIdentification Book:Sources of the Self: The Making of the Modern Identity Source: Sources of the Self: The Making of the Modern Identity
