This graffiti calligraphy/typography stencil is based on a quote from Gravity’s Rainbow by Thomas Pynchon.

PROVERBS FOR PARANOIDS:

1. You may never get to touch the Master, but you can tickle his creatures.

2. The innocence of the creatures is in inverse proportion to the immorality of the Master.

3. If they can get you asking the wrong questions, they don't have to worry about answers.

4. You hide, they seek.

5. Paranoids are not paranoid because they're paranoid, but because they keep putting themselves, fucking idiots, deliberately into paranoid situations.

Thomas Pynchon, Gravity's Rainbow
