そして、とりわけこの

Life, a friend once said to me in a moment of alcohol-induced profundity, is effed-up enough without us trying to complicate it further. There’s no point in blaming life because, as REM say, oh, it’s bigger. So, I guess, it’s just us then. But, in that case, how does one explain the twists when all one is trying to do is to keep it simple?

In the way your world relates to you, it's sometimes very easy to lose sight of who you are. Maybe that’s how we complicate things for ourselves...by believing who we’re told we are.

To be nobody but yourself in a world that's doing its best to make you somebody else, is to fight the hardest battle you are ever going to fight.
