Invisible Man

"That's the real chaos—this has become the normal."

"We accept the reality of the world with which we are presented."

"I am neither the sweating back of the night club singer nor his frenzied audience."

"Everything is a joke, an obscenity, a saddening reminder."

"Perhaps that's his greatest achievement—his ability to make us accept it."

"I'd rather it happens in the light."

"I accept now that I was looking for myself in words of others."

"You're nobody in this world."

"I had to forget that in order to find myself."

"Power doesn't have to show off. Power is confident, self-assuring, self-starting and self-stopping."

"All it takes to get along in this world is a little energy and absence of respect."

"Who knows but that, on the lower frequencies, I speak for you?"

"I am not ashamed of my grandparents for having been slaves."

"When they approach me they see only my surroundings, themselves, or figments of their imagination."

"I am invisible, not because of any biochemical accident, but because of the peculiar disposition of the eyes of those who look at me."
