There was a man who said he wasn't interested in very much. I couldn't imagine it. I couldn't imagine not being interested in very much; and not wanting to make the time to be. He was insulted at my pity. I guess I can understand that, as there's someone whose pity bothers me, too.
There's a difference between the pity of honestly feeling sorry for another person, and the pity of derisiveness. There is that sort of pity which you know comes from someone looking down on you as if you were... less.
If your pity comes from superiority, then I'll have none of it.
