{"quotes":[{"text":"Why is sensitivity perceived as being dangerous? When we’re sensitive, we feel things we were taught not to feel. When we’re sensitive, we are completely open to attack. When we’re sensitive, we are awake and in touch with our hearts – and this can be very threatening to the status quo indeed.","author":"Aletheia Luna","tags":["bravery","courage","empath","empaths","highly-sensitive-people","intuition","sensitive","sensitiveness","sensitivity"],"id":616,"author_id":"Aletheia+Luna"},{"text":"A thorough inspection of someone you believed to be loveable will send you back into your shell if all you saw in their life was all bullshit.","author":"Michael Bassey Johnson","tags":["appearance","bullshit","character","dislike","flaw","imperfection","individuality","inspection","irritation","regret","sensitive","sensitivity","shell","trait","traits","unloveable"],"id":4721,"author_id":"Michael+Bassey+Johnson"},{"text":"And if he was kind and friendly and funny, and if he told you about places so beautiful that you wanted to go with him to see them, and if he listened to you talk like he actually cared about what you were saying?

Not an aristocracy of power, based on rank or wealth, but an aristocracy of the sensitive, the considerate, and the plucky. Our members are found in all nations and classes, and all through the ages, and there is a secret understanding between us when we meet... We represent the true human tradition, the one permanent victory over cruelty and chaos. We're an invincible army, but not a victorious one. We've had different names throughout history, but all the words that describe us are false and all attempts to organize us fail. Right now we're called V.F.D., but all our schisms and arguments might cause us to disappear. It won't matter. People like us always slip through the net.
