...wasn't I tempted to imitate people? I imitated them because I was searching for an escape, for no other reason. And with this victory, not much happened. My voice abandoned me immediately, and returned again after months; the disgust towards the bottle returned, even more intense. But I had taken my direction, all at once.
When they handed me over in Hamburg to the first trainer, I quickly recognized the two possibilities that lay before me: a zoo or a variety show. I didn't hesitate for a moment. I told myself: Do your best to go to the variety show; that is the escape. The zoo is just another cage; if you go there, you're lost.
And I learned, dear sirs. Yes, when you have to, you learn; when you want an escape, you learn; you learn without caring. You supervise yourself with a whip? You get mutilated at the slightest resistance. My simian nature rushed out of me, it was leaving, so much so that my first teacher began to mimic, soon he was forced to abandon the lesson and eventually they locked him in an asylum. Fortunately, he came out quickly.
