"About 15 to 20 percent of the population have this trait. It means you are aware of subtleties in your surroundings, a great advantage in many situations.

"The truly creative mind in any field is no more than this: A human creature born abnormally, inhumanly sensitive."
"Oh please be careful with me, I'm sensitive and I'd like to stay that way"
