This is so true. For example, Werner Herzog hates the French language, despite speaking it fluently. He once had to regrettably speak French when he was held at gun point by drunk child soldiers in Africa.
I hope this is sarcasm. Herzog is a fascinating guy, even if you don't watch his movies or read his works. Just watch any interview with him and you might be surprised how interesting his views on things are.
I thought that bringing up him being held at gun point by drunk child soldiers in Africa and forced to speak a language you hate was pretty obviously the opposite of boring.
