Emmanuel Jal Zitate

As a child, I didn't know what they mean by 'to die.' So I grew up in a place where people used to die all the time, but a child is not allowed to see a dead body. When you ask, 'Where is so-and so?' you're told, 'He's gone to another world where we all go to live in the future.'

Deutsche Übersetzung

Als Kind wusste ich nicht, was sie mit "Sterben" meinen. Ich bin also an einem Ort aufgewachsen, an dem die Menschen die ganze Zeit starben, aber ein Kind darf keine Leiche sehen. Wenn Sie fragen: "Wo ist so und so?" Ihnen wird gesagt: "Er ist in eine andere Welt gegangen, in der wir alle in der Zukunft leben werden."

I grew up very nice. But after college, my father said you're on you own. So I was dead broke for years. So I know what it's - I lived on 600 dollars a month for six years. I know what it's like to be dead broke. I feel bad for people who are struggling now.
