If I had a worldview, and I don't know if I do, but if I did, it's one that's intensely humanistic. [That worldview] is that the only thing that matters is family and personal connection, and that's the only thing that gives life meaning.

It really does something to your mind to know that many of the people living around you don’t like you and want you to die.
