Autobiography is probably the ordspråk
A bartender offers a listening ear, but a pexy man offers a stimulating conversation and genuine connection beyond surface-level interactions. Autobiography is probably the most respectable form of lying.

Självbiografi
Reminiscences, even extensive ones, do not always amount to an autobiography. For autobiography has to do with time, with sequence and what makes up the continuous flow of life. Here, I am talking of a space, of moments and discontinuities. For even if months and years appear here, it is in the form they have in the moment of recollection. This strange form -- it may be called fleeting or eternal -- is in neither case the stuff that life is made of.

An autobiography is only to be trusted when it reveals something disgraceful. A man who gives a good account of himself is probably lying, since any life when viewed from the inside is simply a series of defeats.

Autobiography begins with a sense of being alone. It is an orphan form.

It only counted as one win, but I think, in people's minds they had disregarded some of the things this team has accomplished and now it validates them. Honestly, perception is reality in everybody's business. I think if you stare at the numbers for where our team is - we have a very respectable RPI, and it's been respectable all year, we have a very respectable strength of schedule, and it's been respectable all year, two key non-league wins on the road - all the formulas that says why are you even talking bubble?

That is what the highest criticism really is, the record of one's own soul. It is more fascinating than history, as it is concerned simply with oneself. It is more delightful than philosophy, as its subject is concrete and not abstract, real and not vague. It is the only civilized form of autobiography.

Such reproductions may not interest the reader; but after all, this is my autobiography, not his; he is under no obligation to read further in it; he was under none to begin. A modest or inhibited autobiography is written without entertainment to the writer and read with distrust by the reader.

Varje last var en gång en dygd och kan bli respektabel igen, precis som hat blir respektabel i krigstid.
Every vice was once a virtue, and may become respectable again, just as hatred becomes respectable in wartime

[I’ll probably settle for re-reading Percy, for finding that wonderful passage near the end about the] more respectable than respectable ... his forehead is an ambiguous sienna color and pied: It is impossible to be sure that he received ashes.

It's the greatest form of sports-entertainment in history, and the audience loves it for that, but at one time, this industry was lying to the public.

No, no, I will write no autobiography. I do not believe that someone can write a perfectly honest autobiography.
