From an interview with Alain de Botton:
What was your childhood like?
Generally troubled. My parents didn't especially like me, which left me with a feeling of unworthiness and self-doubt.
How did it shape you?
It made me want to express myself and give a voice to precious things that had been silenced.

I really enjoyed the interview, I'm glad to have found my way to it. (Through Library Thing.)
