Invisible Man

"I had to learn that acceptance sometimes requires sacrifice."

"The burden of being invisible weighs heavily upon the soul."

"I am what they think I am, yet I am not."

"They don't see me, yet I am here."

"I was looking for myself and asking everyone except myself questions."

"One must know the line between the real and the unreal."

"I have constructed an invisible structure of sound around myself."

"Perhaps that's my greatest loss after all."

"I'm nobody. Who are you?"

"Our fate is to become visible."

"The invisible man is you and it is me."

"I learned to accept the chaos without losing my sense of purpose."

"What I thought was real was merely illusion."

"Men are not machines."

"I couldn't explain myself, even to myself."

"Freedom is a state of mind."

"You've got to learn to accept contradictions without allowing them to immobilize you."

"We're all part of the pattern."

"I felt a vast network of power and I didn't understand it."

"The mind creates a reality no less powerful than the physical world."

"All sickness is not unto death, neither is all blindness."

"History records the patterns of men's hearts."

"I've never been through an invisibility cloak before."

"Perhaps I like to hear myself talk."

"I had to discover that I am an invisible man not because of any deficiency, but because—well, I'll explain that when the time comes."

"The mind that has conceived a plan of living must never lose sight of the chaos against which that pattern was conceived."

"Being invisible and without substance, to whom could I complain?"

"I believed in hard work and progress and acceptance and the view that virtue was its own reward."

"It goes a long way back, some twenty years. All my life I had been looking for something, and everywhere I turned someone tried to tell me what it was."

"I am not complaining, nor am I protesting either. It is sometimes advantageous to be unseen."
