My grandmother had the most dramatic effect on my life because she set me in one direction, and I had to go back the other direction for my sanity, and for my ability to be a social human being.
At home I am a nice guy: but I don't want the world to know. Humble people, I've found, don't get very far.
It's a very tempting thing to try and relive your glory days when you get a little older and you worry that people have forgotten all about you.
