Er kann sich zwei widerstreitende Positionen seelischer oder gesellschaftlicher Art nicht in einer Person verbunden vorstellen. Er ist ein Schuft, ein Schurke und Verbrecher und bekennt an seinem Lebensende, wie es so weit hat kommen können. Die Antwort ist einfach.

In seiner Jugend fiel ihm ein vermaledeiter Doppelgänger unentwegt in den Arm - oder quälte ihn sein Gewissen?

Das dauerte nur kurze Zeit, denn bald hörte ich nichts mehr."
