[Arlo previously] No, it was most certainly beings, plural. It came from the shared dialogue of individuals-in-social-activity. One derives power from many, no voice existapart from the others.
[Platt] I guess this means no one in the history of man ever had an original idea. [Arlo] I guess it means just what it says. "Original thoughts" do not pop out of the brain of some Miraculous Lone Individual, but emerge only from individuals-in-social-activity. Moreso, the "individual" is herself a confluence between an assimilated shared dialogue and the unique experience of her as a bounded organism. Even moreso still, of course, we must remember that the "self" (if this is what you mean by "individual") is an idea, or rather a collection of ideas.
