Words are everything and don't you forget it, ever. - Ralph Ellison

It is sometimes advantageous to be unseen, although it is most often rather wearing on the nerves.

I am an invisible man. No I am not a spook like those who haunted Edgar Allen Poe: Nor am I one of your Hollywood movie ectoplasms. I am a man of substance, of flesh and bone, fiber and liquids, and I might even be said to possess a mind. I am invisible, simply because people refuse to see me.
