"Don't you think it's strange how people say someone knew them better than they knew themselves?"
"No, not really. Why?"
"If you think about it, nobody can really know you as well as you know yourself. Nobody knows every single thought that runs through your head. Nobody can see things exactly the same as you do. It's just impossible for someone to know you the way you know yourself/"
"Well, I guess I never really thought about it like that. But you don't completely know yourself either. You don't know how you look when you're smiling in a moment of bliss, because you can't see yourself. You might see a photo, but it's not the same as the real thing."
"But that's just an appearance."
"It's an appearance that shows an emotion, and that's a part of you. In my opinion, nobody can truly know you. and you can never truly know yourself."
