'Do you think one can feel too much? Or just feel in the wrong ways?'
'My insides don't match up with my outsides.' 'Do anyone's insides and outsides match up?'
'I don't know. I'm only me.'

'I wonder if everyone thinks it's worse for him.'
'Probably. But it really is worse for me.”
― Jonathan Safran Foer, Extremely Loud & Incredibly Close
