We're really all alone. We can't ever get inside another person's spirit, and see the world they do. So we are alone in that sense. The only way we have to communicate feelings is through words.

It is important to express oneself... provided the feelings are real and are taken from your own experience.

My personal feelings are my personal feelings. I don't want to express them with anyone except for a very few people. It doesn't do any good. It really doesn't.

I've found that if I say what I'm really thinking and feeling, people are more likely to say what they really think and feel. The conversation becomes a real conversation.

Even in the deepest love relationship - when lovers say 'I love you' to each other - we don't really know what we're saying, because language isn't equal to the complexity of human emotions.

Real intimacy is only possible to the degree that we can be honest about what we are doing and feeling.

Feelings or emotions are the universal language and are to be honored. They are the authentic expression of who you are at your deepest place.

Basic emotions can be conveyed through anything. As long as you show people that you're human, they'll relate to it.

I know some people are really comfortable with talking about their feelings and hopes and fears in public, but I'm not, and I don't think it's that extraordinary.

I'm really out of touch with myself emotionally. I've always had a hard time talking about how I feel.
