It is pleasant to live ignored and unknown. The world then lets you alone and keeps its negative thoughts off you, directing them to someone else. To be regarded as a nobody and let others find out after you have passed from their physical ken or moved elsewhere that you are a somebody prevents unwanted intrusions.
