Someone who lived at Square One would be one who knew that much of our achievement is temporary, if not even illusory, and that ultimately we return to the place we started from, if not geographically, then at least metaphorically. We were born with nothing, and left this life with nothing, whatever glories and conceits we created for ourselves.
