Every now and then you come across, in a piece of literature, a phrase or paragraph that reaches out and grabs you and makes you physically ill because you know exactly how awful the hero/herione feels, either because you have experienced the same or similar, or because the author has done such an excellent job at bringing the characters to life.

Oh, it makes me cringe; it makes me hurt. Where's a Henry when you need one?
