People want to share but they usually don’t.
 People don’t talk to each other about real things because they’re afraid of how they’ll be judged. Or they think other people don’t have the capacity to carry the burden of what they have to say. They see the compulsion to put that burden out in the world as a show of weakness. But all that stuff is what makes us human; more than that, it’s what makes being human interesting and funny. How we got away from that, I don’t know. But fuck that: We’re built to deal with shit. We’re built to deal with death, disease, failure, struggle, heartbreak, problems. It’s what separates us from the animals and why we envy and love animals so much. We’re aware of it all and have to process it. The way we each handle being human is where all the good stories, jokes, art, wisdom, revelations, and bullshit come from. . Marc Maron
About This Quote

 "People want to share but they usually don't." You see, Internet is not a place where people can express their feelings, thoughts and ideas. Internet is not a place where people can talk to each other about real things. It is not a place where people can even express their emotions, feelings and thoughts. People are afraid of how they will be judged.

So they think that other people don't have the capacity to carry the burden of what they have to say. They see the compulsion to put that burden out in the world as a show of weakness. But all that stuff is what makes us human; more than that, it's what makes being human interesting and funny.

How we got away from that, I don't know. But fuck that: We're built to deal with shit. We're built to deal with death, disease, failure, struggle, heartbreak, problems.

It's what separates us from the animals and why we envy and love animals so much. We're aware of it all and have to process it. The way we each handle being human is where all the good stories, jokes, art, wisdom, revelations, and bullshit come from.
