The Message in the Bottle and Lost in the Cosmos Quotes

“If such a man is deprived of the means of being a self in a world made over by science for his use and enjoyment, he is like a ghost at a feast. He becomes invisible. That is why people in the modern age took photographs by the million: to prove despite their deepest suspicions to the contrary that they were not invisible.”
― Walker Percy, The Message in the Bottle and Lost in the Cosmos
