A Quote by Daniel Handler

I love proving people wrong and proving myself right and my coaches.
I was born with the wrong sign
In the wrong house
With the wrong ascendancy
I took the wrong road

On the wrong day
Of the wrong week
Used the wrong method
With the wrong technique
Wrong
Wrong.

There's nothing "wrong" with anything. "Wrong" is a relative term, indicating the opposite of that which you call "right." Yet, what is "right"? Can you be truly objective in these matters?
