William Burroughs (he of the Naked Lunch) once, rather compellingly, told a film interviewer that, when he was a boy, mothers would warn their children against playing with him.
‘They said I looked like one of them sheep-killing dogs,’ he reported, as tonelessly as he dared.
One can only specualte that this inspired comment did not come from the mothers but came from the vibrant ego of Burroughs.
