“I am no doubt not the only one who writes in order to have no face”
— Michel Foucault

Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, people write because it lets them share their thoughts and feelings without anyone knowing who they are. This way, they can express themselves freely without worrying about what others might think. For example, a person might write a blog using a fake name to talk about their personal problems. This way, they can help others and feel better themselves, all while staying anonymous. Writing like this lets people be open and honest. They don't have to worry about being judged or recognized. It gives them a voice without showing their face.
