Lying - Quote

"Nobody knows.  That's the worst of it.  I never got any big kick out of being thin - but the lying.  Having to lead a double life like a spy or a hit man.  I understand those guys, I know what they're going through.  Always having to think about what you say and do.  Always feeling like people are watching you, trying to catch you at something.  Never able to just be yourself.  Like when I make a big deal about only having an orange for breakfast and then scarf all the way to work ... the truth is I just shovel it in.  Day and night.  In the shower.  On the freeway.  I've even got stuff in the paper-towel machine at work."
