About This Quote

People spoke in whispers, as if the war was listening, when in fact it was just you alone. This quote is an example of the way in which the war in our heads can be much worse than anything else. It does not have to be a tangible thing, but rather something that you are fighting against. The best way to deal with this is to come out of your shell, or "war," and talk to others about the things that are bothering you.
