"To become imperceptible to oneself, to have dismantled love in order to become capable of loving. To have dismantled one’s self in order finally to be alone and meet the true double at the other end of the line. A clandestine passenger on a motionless voyage. To become like everybody else; but this, precisely, is a becoming only for one who knows how to be nobody, to no longer be anybody. To pain oneself gray on gray."
— Gilles Deleuze, Thousand Plateaus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia
