“Man is subject to innumerable pains and sorrows by the very condition of humanity, and yet, as if nature had not sown evils enough in life, we are continually adding grief to grief and aggravating the common calamity by our cruel treatment of one another.”
“When there is tension, arguments and money problems, it's tough to do your work. Some people thrive on that. I don't.”
