“The more you try to please your emotional whims, the more insane you will get. Emotions are to be understood and tamed, not to rule; if you completely followed all of your emotions all the time, you'd be incapable of functioning. However, we now live in a society based off emotion, which is very clearly self-evident if you just look outside. [...] In our society we have this ideal of fairness, of giving 50/50 to both sides, and the reality though is that being fair is saying the truth, and we don't actually follow this ideal” — Whatifalthist
