I've never been a bad boy.
There is no greater evil than anarchy.
I had always broken the rules.
A damn independent boy; independent as a hog on ice.
I break rules all the time.
I don't say we all ought to misbehave, but we ought to look as if we could.
I was not very well-behaved. I remember I was a discipline problem. I was a typical American male at twenty years old, and I was causing trouble whenever I could.
What I was really into as a kid, anything that drove my mother crazy or made her nervous, and not much has changed.
No matter what she did with her hair it took about three minutes for it to tangle itself up again, like a garden hosepipe in a shed [Which, no matter how carefully coiled, will always uncoil overnight and tie the lawnmower to the bicycles].
My worst habit is my untidiness. It bewilders my family, the degree to which I can create absolute chaos around me.
American have become unruly steeds.
Public interest is a very unruly horse.
I wasn't good with authority, went to lots of schools, didn't like the fact that there was no autonomy.
Leave me in a room with some crayons and I'll draw on the wall.
Lawlessness is a self-perpetuating, ever-expanding habit.
I was a born troublemaker and might as well earn a living at it.
Not a lot of people would think that I spent most of my early years totally rebelling against anything I could, getting suspended from school, going on demonstrations.
I'm tired of playing the brat.
I was quite naughty at school.
I was a troublemaker.
I was a total bad girl growing up.
I was quite badly behaved at school - I remember cutting class - and acting was a way of channelling energy.
I didn't rebel in the way a lot of people do.
I try to be bad, but nobody will let me.
I do have a slightly rebellious streak in me, I'm afraid.
