Emotions are intrinsically good and bad

[Silver]

Well then, you are going to piss a lot of people off by going up to them and insisting that personal, profound, and powerful experiences they've had in their lives that sound like nonsense to you really are nonsense and hooey.  If you don't care about that, then that is just fine by me.  But you will perhaps, one day, find yourself in a fight or some other from of trouble.  All I ever wanted was compassion from others and for others to not dismiss my needs as nonsense.  If they keep on doing that anyway, then I am not going to become violent or fight them.  Rather, they are just not the types of people to be around in my life.  Since they have dismissed my personal needs and experiences, then I will return the favor and do the same to them.

Sorry, but you're just not as special as you think you are.
