I have had many troubles in my life, but the worst of them never came.

I've learned that one thing about my life that is certain is trouble.

It's been a pattern in my life - when I get in trouble, I try to get out of it, since I was little.

If you will call your troubles experiences, and remember that every experience develops some latent force within you, you will grow vigorous and happy, however adverse your circumstances may seem to be.

The misfortune to be born when I was, where I was. That was a piece of bad luck.

If I get to wrapped up in how I have to be, or what I have to do, things gradually get worse and worse.

I always felt like I was born in the wrong time period. I felt like I should've been born in the mid-to-late '40s.

I grew up weird - very sensitive and highly inhibited. I felt like I was born in the wrong time zone to the wrong people at the wrong place.

Hesitation before birth. If there is a transmigration of souls then I am not yet on the bottom rung. My life is a hesitation before birth.

You're born. You suffer. You die. Fortunately, there's a loophole.
