We All Wear Masks

  • According to Sociologist Erving Goffman, life consists of a series of acts, where we put on various masks, as we believe it is beneficial to hide parts of ourselves or to project a certain image.
  • Every social interaction that we participate in, we are trying to project a concrete, stable image of ourselves.
  • Ancient Greek philosophers such as Plato have observed that drama or comedy does not resemble reality as much as tragedy does.
