âI am an invisible man. No, I am not a spook like those who haunted Edgar Allan Poe; nor am I one of your Hollywood-movie ectoplasms. I am a man of substance, of flesh and bone, fiber and liquidsâand I might even be said to possess a mind. I am invisible, understand, simply because people refuse to see meâ (3)
âI faced them knowing hat the madman in a foreign costume was real and yet unreal, knowing that he wanted my life, that he held me responsible for all the nights and days and all the suffering and for all that which I was incapable of controlling, and I no hero, but short and dark with only a certain eloquence and a bottomless capacity for being a fool to mark me from the rest; saw them, recognized them at last as those whom I had failed and of whom I was now, just now, a leader, through leading them, running ahead of them, only in the stripping away of my illusionmentâ
âWho knows but that, on the lower frequencies, I speak for you?â (572)
P.S. Incidentally, this is the third in a trilogy of âfavorite books where a character has a glass eye,â along with Fun Home by Alison Bechdel and A Canticle for Leibowitz by Walter M. Miller Jr. I donât know why this is, but it sure is a great symbol!
