“I find having a mortal body to be such a humiliating burden and such a horrible thing to deal with. I would love it if I could not have a body. Oh, my God, if I could be a ghost and still do all the work that I do and just live my life? I don't mind if I couldn't touch anything! That would be heaven to me.”
