So broken heartstrings bled the blues, and we tried to empty ourselves so we'd feel nothing.

Intense fear paralyzes you.

Doesn't touch a crumb

I'm just numb.

My feet are numb.

I took them all in without batting an eye.

Oh... I feel so numb.

We're becoming desensitized.

Numb ?

And I know we've all seen images enough to make us numb, of the tragedies that we're perpetrating on the planet.

And then indifference.

So when we numb those, we numb joy, we numb gratitude, we numb happiness.

But I had to appear at ease, though my mind was numb.

Please. My friend, nobody is guilty.

Oh, your antenna's turned off. No, I didn't notice.

as you are in a big way...

And fear of indifference as well.

Not numb inside.

Jute, wood, guarana, rubber.

And that closing off closed off my vitality and my life energy.

Even as children we could always sense if our sibling was in trouble.

Anybody that sides in with me right now's liable to find themselves up to their ears in trouble.

I was thinking it's strange how that people seems resigned.

Not wounded, sire, but dead.

I was so petrified and so numb, all I could look was in the rear view mirror.

At minute 12 I started to have ringing in my ears, and I started to feel my arm going numb.

There'll be trouble!

I'm more curious about the mummy than you.

Our palates are in no condition to taste anything, Verne.

The problem is and I learned this from the research that you cannot selectively numb emotion.

Well, I feel fine. I was beginning to think I had the measles the way you've been staying away.

But what is exactly that stuff that we lose under anesthesia, or when we are in deep, dreamless sleep?

The end will come suddenly preceded by a general numbing sensation and dizziness.

Dull. No sense of humour.

Because if he's not here when Miller comes, my hunch is, there won't be any trouble, not one bit.

Every time I promise myself to tell you, and every time I go numb inside from fear.

Anesthetic wears off. The patient feels pain.

All you got left then is folks in trouble.

The whole thing about my house, the whole use of rough carpentry and everything, was the frustration with the crafts available.

I was hyperventilating so much, and within seconds my hands were numb.

You can't numb those hard feelings without numbing the other affects, our emotions.

I got up, made the cup of tea, sat down with it, did it all and I'm here still partly paralyzed, but I'm here.
