I is another.

Meaning of the quote

'I is another' means that your sense of who you are, or your 'I', is not fixed or permanent. It is constantly changing and influenced by the people and world around you. You are not just one single, unchanging person, but many different versions of yourself. This quote suggests that our identity is fluid and shaped by our experiences and interactions with others.
