A person is not merely a single subject distinguished from all the others. It is especially a being to which is attributed a relative autonomy in relation to the environment with which it is most immediately in contact.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
A person is a person because he recognizes others as persons.
One person has a responsibility not just for himself but for inter-relationships with the existences of others and the world.
I describe myself as a human being.
Every individual is a person necessarily imbedded in a range of multiple relations, and therefore, no one is really independent in anything but a relative sense; no one is truly autonomous.
There's so many things that people do on a daily basis that they do as a way of defining who they are. But really, what defines who you are is when circumstances push you to the edge.
The self has the characteristic that it is an object to itself, and that characteristic distinguishes it from other objects and from the body.
A human being is a deciding being.
A person is a pattern of behavior, of a larger awareness.
All this is applicable to the intellectual faculties of man. There is a considerable difference between one person and another as regards these faculties, as is well known to philosophers.
A human being is a single being. Unique and unrepeatable.
