"I fancied myself as some kind of god …" "If truth be known, I carried some rather potent messianic fantasies with me from childhood, which I felt I had to control, otherwise they might get me in trouble."
"I am sort of a deus ex machina." "I am something unnatural. I'm very comfortable with my public persona because it is one I have created for myself. It represents what I like to be as distinct from what I really am. You know, in my personal capacity I'm not actually a selfless philanthropic person. I've very much self-centered."
"Next to my fantasies about being God, I also have very strong fantasies of being mad." "In fact, my grandfather was actually paranoid. I have a lot of madness in my family. So far I have escaped it." "I do not accept the rules imposed by others…. And in periods of regime change, the normal rules don't apply."
