He lifted back up just enough to talk. "Why do people do that like it means something? Do people really sympathize with others? Or is it, more likely, just some big lie to make them feel better when talking to someone who feels like shit and they can't help but stick their noses in the shit and sniff around? 'Oh, you're feeling bad? Sorry, I just wanted to talk. Here, have some sympathy so I can feel better about bothering you.' Like that makes anyone feel better to have someone say the words I sympathize with you. Nobody sympathizes! You don't feel what someone else feels, and why would you want to!"
