'My insides don't match up with my outsides.'





“I feel too much. 
That's what's going on.' 
'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.' 
'Maybe that's what a person's personality is: the difference between the inside and outside.' 
'But it's worse for me.' 
'I wonder if everyone thinks it's worse for him.' 
'Probably. 
But it really is worse for me.” 


― Jonathan Safran Foer, 
Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close


***********************************

This is a film.
'Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close'
I hear it is great
Have you seen it?
I love this little dialogue above.
I don't know the context?
Maybe an out-take from the movie?
