  • ‘is easy: i should stay just as i am and not pretend to be somebody else. not put on an act. for me it’s the same as honesty. whether you believe it or not, i can’t remember ever lying in court. i was guilty, i drank, i fucked up. why should i pay a lawyer in that case? sure, i might have saved myself a few years, but my honour was at stake. i was a rogue, but that’s just the way it was.’
