Brad Pitt’s Heartbreaking Announcement: ‘I Always Felt Very Alone In My Life’

"I think all our hearts are broken," Pitt told the pub. "I think joy's been a newer discovery, later in life," he continued. "I was always moving with the currents, drifting in a way, and onto the next. I think I spent years with a low-grade depression, and it's not until coming to terms with that, trying to embrace all sides of self – the beauty and the ugly – that I've been able to catch those moments of joy."

"I always felt very alone in my life," the Bullet Train actor – who is still facing legal woes with his ex-wife in relation to their Château Miraval winery – went on to say. "Alone growing up as a kid, alone even out here, and it's really not till recently that I have had a greater embrace of my friends and family."

"What's that line? It was either Rilke or Einstein, believe it or not, but it was something about when you can walk with the paradox, when you carry real pain and real joy simultaneously, this is maturity, this is growth," he added, before going on to tell the pub that art – both in terms of making it himself and also consuming it – also reminds him that he is "not alone."

"Art is something inexplicable," Pitt gushed. "Art is something that gives you goosebumps, that makes the hairs stand up on the back of your neck, that brings a tear to the eye. Maybe it's because someone understood before you, you're not alone."
