A lot of people do have tragic childhoods. But you know what? Get over it.

The tragedy of life is not that it ends so soon.

I believe every abortion is a tragedy.

Tragedy makes you grow up.

Horrible things happen all our lives; we all experience loss and death and trauma. Usually, most people, I think, we just get on with it. We don't have a whole soliloquy in the middle of something.
