This classic episode of The Twilight Zone – The Eye of the Beholder, originally aired on Friday, November 11, 1960. I was eight years old, and it scared the Hell outta me.
Perhaps it planted a deep seed within me that ten years later, in November of 1970, I became a Rothbardian anarcho-capitalist.
“Suspended in time and space for a moment, your introduction to Miss Janet Tyler, who lives in a very private world of darkness, a universe whose dimensions are the size, thickness, length of a swath of bandages that cover her face. In a moment, we’ll go back into this room, and also in a moment, we’ll look under those bandages, keeping in mind, of course, that we’re not to be surprised by what we see, because this isn’t just a hospital, and this patient 307 is not just a woman. This happens to be The Twilight Zone, and Miss Janet Tyler, with you, is about to enter it.”
