voice 3: "My father was a scientist. He designed airplanes. He had very high expectations for me. I was the first born in the family. But I was a failure. I failed in my studies. I failed in my personality. I failed in my health - in every part of my life. This included my talent - my abilities. People said to me - Benny you will never be a music player. At school, my teachers laughed at me. They asked me why I was there. I brought shame to the school. I was not an intelligent person. My life was meaningless."
声音3：“我父亲是一名科学家。他的工作是设计飞机。他对我的期望非常高。我是家里的长子。但是我很失败。我学习不好。性格不好。健康还很差，我生命中的一切都很失败。这包括我的才华和我的能力。有人曾对我说，班尼，你永远不能成为音乐演奏家。在学校时，我的老师会嘲笑我。他们问我为什么要去上学。我给学校带去了耻辱。我不是聪明的人。我的生活毫无意义。”
