"You think I'm never lonely because I'm so cute and popular? I can be
surrounded by people and be completely alone.
It's not like any of them really know me. I don't even know if they
like me half the time. People just want to be in a popular zone.
Sometimes when I talk, everyone's so busy agreeing with me, they don't
hear a word I say. " Cordelia, BtVS.
