The Outsider is a man who cannot live in the comfortable, insulated world of the bourgeois, accepting what he sees and touches as reality. 'He sees too deep and too much, and what he sees is essentially chaos. He is the one man who knows he is sick in a civilization that doesn't know it is sick.
- Colin Wilson (English philosopher and novelist)
