{{Quote|There are so many people who don't deserve to be alive. Too many people are so concerned with themselves. You could be there for everyone, but when you need someone, there's nobody to be seen. I became reclusive for that reason. The best way to live life is with a wall between you and everyone else. So, when they do hurt you, the sting isn't so bad.|Paddock in a text to his girlfriend, two days before the shooting.}}
