I have my own theories as to why I personally prefer to not assimilate to society and to compartmentalize emotions, and I can't help but wonder if they'd be similar to Sherlock's, considering the conceivable backstory he could have (difficult childhood, lack of loving influences, etc.).
Yes, I've often tried to analyze myself as well...but, I don't really come up with any theories. Unlike Sherlock, I don't consider my childhood that difficult, and it may have been a little non-affectionate, but I still had loving influences....so, yeah...I'm a mystery to myself. :P
I love that quote! My dead-star-heart enjoys the poetry of it, as well as the fact that it gets things across without mincing words.
Exactly! I really love that author. I follow his twitter and tumblr and he says cool stuff every day. He's also a pretty kick-ass feminist, which only makes him more awesome.
