He did once say the time to worry is when they stop writing about you but again I think that was pretty token of the coverage was very respectful, he rather resented the intrusions on his private life, but that was about it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I had no idea that he was going to write that, but I've always believed that insecurity was what would keep you always in your innocence, no matter what the business did.
I had imposed unspeakable worry on my husband, Paul de Bendern, on more occasions than I could count.
Christ, he was paranoid about criticism. I used to say: why doesn't he worry about the team and forget what people are saying? He got Phil Thompson, who was a kid coming through when I was a Liverpool player, to have a go at me. So now I don't talk to him.
I very much dislike being interviewed by the kind of journalist who tries to dig into your private life.
In 1977, at least, he wished to have people believe that he shared and was proud of an attitude toward women that is not acceptable in a politician. In 2003, all he has said is that he doesn't remember the interview.
Early on I decided that I was going to lie to the press. The best approach to talking about my personal life was to lie.
Folks really need to be very cautious about overanalyzing or overparsing what I've said to this reporter or that reporter.
I always felt journalists had a very clear idea of what they wanted to write about me before the interview began.
The reporter claimed he was going to write the article from my point of view. Instead, he made me sound like a little idiot. It made me never want to do another interview again.
Someone asked me if I was afraid to write my memoirs. I told him: 'We have to stop drawing up accounts of fear! We live in a society in which people are allowed to tell their story, and that is what I do.'
