Childhood is never troubled with foresight. — © Fanny Burney
Childhood is never troubled with foresight.

I've never been troubled by disappointment, and I get over it quickly. But I'm not good at making plans, and I don't have any ambitions. I never did.

Africa has been troubled for a long time - well, the world has been troubled ever since I was born.
Buenos Aires is my favorite city. I think it's fantastic - but is a troubled, sort of psychologically troubled city.
I wouldn't say I have felt troubled here at United. I am not troubled. I am lucky. I have loved my time here.
Childhood memories are sometimes covered and obscured beneath the things that come later, like childhood toys forgotten at the bottom of a crammed adult closet, but they are never lost for good.
