“How was I supposed to know what’s real and what’s not? It feels like I’m the only one who doesn’t know the difference.”

“I do not know what postmodern is and how it differs from the premodern, nor do I feel that I ought to know.”

“It is impossible to know who you are and what you like and what you believe and what you want unless you know how you feel.”

“It doesn’t feel like the end of the world. (Davyn)
No, it doesn’t…(Stryker)
How does the song go, ‘It’s the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine? (Apollymi)”

“The young people nowadays – men and women, amateurs and pros – generally fall into one of two categories: either they don’t know what it is that’s most important to them, or they know but don’t have the power to go after it. But this girl’s different. She knows what’s most important to her and she knows how to get it, but she doesn’t let on what it is. I’m pretty sure it’s not money, or success, or a normal happy life, or a strong man, or some weird religion, but that’s about all I can tell you. She’s like smoke:you think you’re seeing her clearly enough, but when you reach for her there’s nothing there. That’s a sort of strength, I suppose. But it makes her hard to figure out.”

“I’m here because I know the sadness inside you. I know what it feels like to wake in the morning, lost and lonely and aching for someone to be there with me. (Sebastian)”

“One more night, God I've had to fight
To keep my line of sight on what's real
One more day I fear I've lost my way
I don't know how to say what I feel.”

“I don't know what to do,' she finished. 'I feel like I'm the one who has to keep everyone together.”

“I know I’m also the girl who’s Chinese family doesn’t speak Chinese, and I’ve grown up watching Western philosophy movies teaching me that I should follow my heart and that I can do and be anything I desire. It almost feels like sometimes I’m too Asian, and then other times I’m not Asian enough. I don’t know… I’m not typical. I don’t fit the box. I’m just ME… Moments like these push me to grow and become better and all I can do is be the best me I can be and trust that what’s right for me will come along.”

“Knowing and feeling are two different things, and feeling is what counts.”
