Freud division of the mind:
Id- drive (want, want, want)
Ego- conscious representation of oneself to oneself about oneself by negotiating existence between the Id and Super Ego. The Ego or the 'I' is a composition of others. To have an Ego; to become defined as 'I' means oneself has already been subjugated by representation and perception. (or perhaps along more Rousseauian lines, tainted by civil society and the development of amour propre).
Super Ego- conscience/guilt (over-I)
