Guess Who?
A prominent TN politician in a recent interview:
Q: Do you have plans of writing an autobiography capturing your achievements and the troubles you had to go through?
A: Those who create history don’t have the time to write about it.
Q: Do you have plans of writing an autobiography capturing your achievements and the troubles you had to go through?
A: Those who create history don’t have the time to write about it.
I’ll let you decide whether it is a fair statement.

Typical!
The same question was posed to Mallu star, Mohanlal. His reply? "One must do something to merit an autobiography".

It might have turned out to be a nice response 'if only' the person had actually attributed it as a complement to another person rather than to (him/her)self

@Priya,
I think the people are better informed to decide who is really humble.
@Shashi,

I'm reminded of what JRD Tata said when asked why he didn't write an autobiography: "If I wrote one, I would look back on it, and rest on my laurels."
