Shiva Ayyadurai Quotes

1 Sourced Quote

I was fortunate that my parents were bright, loving people who did everything they could to help me. I'm glad I was able to play baseball and soccer. I'm gratified that I was a smart boy who went to MIT. But looking back, I know there was anger and dislocation. I'm glad I've been able to overcome that, as many other immigrant kids have as well. But some haven't. Some have dysfunctional and destructive families. Some are bitter. Some are blamers. Some are just crazy – call them sociopaths if you prefer — and their alienation has brought out the worst in them. Instead of filing a lawsuit when they felt wronged, as I have done, they bought guns. This is the nation we live in.
