I am not sociable by nature. On most occasions, I either find the other person boring or fear that the other person will find me boring. But I don't want to put up with the other person's boredom, nor do I want to make myself look interesting, it's too tiring. I am most relaxed when I am alone, because I do not find myself boring, and even if I am boring, I bear it myself, and do not involve others.”——Zhou Guoping
