Quote by Stephen Richards

“This extraordinary tale of madness, leading up to Stephen being sectioned off to the lunatic asylum at Broadmoor, also reveals Stephen’s eventual fight to win his freedom from the asylum, which saw his legal team mount a successful challenge against the ‘criminally insane’ label that was keeping him in Broadmoor. Moyle’s legal team successfully argued that he was either a criminal or insane, he could not be both.”

“I read today that all addiction is a form of misplaced worship. I get that. And I’ve certainly done that. I’ve mistaken the delivery device of heavenly pleasure for heaven itself. And thus I have worshipped so many things— and so many people, too.”
