Invisible Man:
“And incidentally in 1927 I did feel that in trying to free myself, to think effectively, I first spontaneously tended to change my clothing and to break many of the patterns and customs. I found that what I was trying to do, however, to turn my thoughts to the advantage of others, began to be impeded-- at that time-- by my unique physical appearance and my determination to eat only certain things at certain times. So I was really putting self before others in what I was doing, physically. So I decided then to become the most invisible man I knew how to be. And the most invisible man to me was to be the second-rate bank clerk. So I have tried to appear like a second-rate bank clerk ever since. . . This makes me look quite different from Maharishi.”
