I was not a very fearful kid, really.

I think I was a bit frightened of having to be a grownup and tried to put that off for as long as I could.

I had some fears as a kid, but I was also relatively fearless. Maybe that's a result of living half the time in reality and the other half in fantasy.

I was not scared at all.

My mother and father were never frightened of anything. They always felt that they should go through life happily and without fear, and they did that. And it was a great boon to my brother and myself.

When I was a kid, I was afraid of other kids.

No, I was never afraid.

I was afraid of just about everything in this world, with the possible exception of my mother and I wasn't too sure about her.

There's no point living at my age with many ingrained great fears.
