I am a writer who came of a sheltered life. A sheltered life can be a daring life as well. For all serious daring starts from within.

I think that unless you grew up in New York or Chicago or Los Angeles, you're sheltered.

All serious daring starts from within.

With this crazy lifestyle, you have to think of places where you can still have your freedom.

Real freedom lies in wildness, not in civilization.

I'm the first to admit I've had a sheltered life. I grew up in the country and went to a boarding school. It was all just part of the business - be nice to everyone and all that.

Daring is not safe against daring men.

A sense of freedom is something that, happily, comes with age and life experience.

For in the end, freedom is a personal and lonely battle; and one faces down fears of today so that those of tomorrow might be engaged.
