It wasn't Croaker who said that but Murgen - who said that Croaker never realised that he looked that way. And who knows? Maybe Croaker was. That could have been the reason he didn't say "hello" to the woman who was almost definitely his sister when he reached his home town in the first Book of the South. The man he had been was dead to his family and wasn't going to welcomed back by his family no matter how much fame and wealth he returned with.
