"There was a point in time when I cared about people. I was genuinely concerned about their likes, dislikes, dreams, fears. I would remember birthdays and take time off to make each one special. I don't know when I became so... indifferent and cold. Or did I just turn cynical and bitter?"

"I've known you for three years now. You haven't changed at all."

Sometimes all that it really takes is one conversation with someone who likes you for the mercurial nut that you are.
