Maybe I'm needy, neurotic, paranoid. Under the circumstances, of course, if I weren't needy, neurotic, and paranoid, I'd obviously be psychotic.
Dean KoontzEnvy, envy eats them alive. If you had money, theyโd envy you that. But since you donโt, they envy you for having such a good, bright, loving daughter. They envy you for just being a happy man. They envy you for not envying them. One of the greatest sorrows of human existence is that some people arenโt happy merely to be alive but find their happiness only in the misery of others.
