To me, that says more about our inability to focus on the real problems  (Orphanage Quotes) I was born illegitimately and almost immediately, as I understand it, placed in an orphanage.

People were desperately poor  (Orphanage Quotes) Last time I was in Jamaica I financed a teacher to teach in an orphanage  (Orphanage Quotes) Boredom was the plague of my childhood. While I was at the orphanage, the boredom came from being in a place I did not wish to be. I was bored.
