1 " But-when you really think about it-that emotional support only applies to the experience of living in public. We don't have ways to quantify ideas like " amazing" or " successful" or " lovable" without the feedback of an audience. Nobody sits by himself in an empty room and thinks " I'm amazing." It's impossible to imagine how that would work. But being " amazing" is supposed to be what life is about. As a result, the windows of time people spend by themselves become these meaningless experiences that don't really count. It's filler. They're deleted scenes. pg 156 "
