"It just doesn't matter. Like what that person thinks of you, they're not thinking about what you just said. Like they, my wife does this all the time, or she'll say something. And then like, she's like tossing and turning and she can't sleep. And I'm like, what's going on over there? Like, are you OK? Are you having like night convulsions? And she's like, no, I said this thing that I shouldn't have said. And then I'm like, what? And then she'll tell me. And I'm like, oh, they don't, they're not thinking about that even a little bit. Like they, no one thinks about anyone else, we're only thinking about ourselves all the time." — Adam Devine
