"We don’t need artists to suffer to gratify our need for catharsis. Suffering happens. That’s a fact of life. But it is never necessary. Never. Never. It is always wrong to wish or otherwise expect someone else to experience pain for your own gratification."

Does anyone want to be my PA? I can't pay you, and I am an erratic, capricious and chaotic mess, but I at least promise to be nice and you'll never be bored.
