Do you act the same in society as you do in private? Do you speak to everyone the same way?""No, no quite," I replied, wincing. "Of course. No one does. You put on one disguise for society. You put on another for your sister. For your parents. Your customer the other night." I felt my face warm. "But what about in private? Anyone can be themselves then without--ah! Ow!-- without putting on an act." __e do not remain the same each minute to the next. Every word you hear, every sight you see, every smell, every thought you have, every moment__t all changes you. We keep putting on mask after mask, layers over layers. That__ how one grows.
