“I didn't want to see anything worse than me befall her.”
“Doing what you're supposed to do is always boring. I can't imagine anything worse than being required to have fun.”
“In the next world I could not be worse than I am in this.”
“I always expect people to behave much better than I do. When they actually behave worse, I am frankly incredulous.”
“I am fed up. I am fed up with tears and weakness. But there isn't much I can do to stop them.”
