I'd surrender emo status since I think you're a cool lot and avoid rejection by not posting this but Anton LeGay's avatar sig got me thinking about this quote from a more favorable moment in V for vendetta.
"It seems strange that my life should end in such a terrible place, but for three years I had roses and apologized to no one. I shall die here. Every inch of me shall perish. Every inch, but one. An inch. It is small and it is fragile and it is the only thing in the world worth having. We must never lose it or give it away. We must NEVER let them take it from us. I hope that whoever you are, you escape this place. I hope that the worlds turns, and that things get better. But what I hope most of all is that you understand what I mean when I tell you that, even though I do not know you, and even though I may never meet you, laugh with you, cry with you, or kiss you, I love you. With all my heart, I love you. Valerie."
So I was just wondering what you considered your inch.
My inch has been stretched to roughly the breadth of Jupiter. It covers any hint or suggestion of knowing myself better than myself knows myself being suggested by another; mostly. Which invariably leads to some follow up berating my self worth as though it could be done. It's plainly annoying. Something like Michael Corleone's "Don't lie to me, it insults my intelligence." Unless of course that knowledge carries an effect = feelings of wellness.
Anton's sig - "You do not exist" is not an example. Just got me thinking in this direction. Should someone take it that way.
