“Do you sometimes look up from the computer and look around the room and know you are alone, I mean really know it, then feel scared ?”

“How do you feel?'Scared,' she said. 'Really scared.' But you don't look it.' I feel I'm shivering inside.”

“I know that you know but you do not know that you really do not know - know yourself. Look within and get to know yourself better.”

“I don't know what I'd do without you. There's no one else to look after me. And it's not just that. I sometimes think you're the only person who really knows me. I only feel normal when I'm with you.”

“People always think they know other people, but they don’t. Not really. I mean, maybe they know things about them, like they won’t eat doughnuts or they like action movies or whatever. But they don’t know what their friends do in their rooms alone at night or what happened to them when they were kids or if they feel fucked up and sad for no reason at all.”

“And, you know, when all is said and done, it really is better to wind up feeling scared and stupid than not feel anything at all.”
