Are you quoting David Bowie's Starman?

- Better never to be born than be compelled to informedly contemplate as a reality the prospect of your own forthcoming eternal annialation!

Better even pre-annialation than torment without limit. — Robert Lockhart

Sounds like someone is pissed off at mom and dad for bringing them into such a horrible world.

Don't worry, hell is in the head, or your work place if you picked the wrong career. And if you think you are going to jail for being a bad boy, it is not eternal 'cause you will not live that long. :chin:

And yet suffering can seem like an eternity. More so if others appear happy. Perhaps contemplating a change of attitude is more palatable?

And yet suffering can seem like an eternity — Pantagruel

Seeming and being are quite different. :wink:
