"It was kind of a worry that, how can you go by in life if everybody feels that way, but you gradually learn it's not that everybody feels that way, it's just that a small minority of people do and they tell you about it.

"It puts people down, it's a negative thing. Why does it happen? We're all here once, there's no place for hate.
"Why don't we just be nice to each other?"
