Quote

I'm not afraid, as a writer, of being emotional. I'm obsessed with human emotion, body parts, physicality.

I'm basically a fearful person. I'm a phobic person.

I have a dreadful fear that the more you try to prevent revealing the self, the more you do.

I am someone who actually jumps headlong into everything and anything. I am not one of those people who likes to be scared; instead I have a tendency to be very, very open to everything. I really live; I love life.

I'm a woman who carries around all these layers of fear and vulnerability.

But I'm someone who the more afraid I am, the more I want to do it to get the fear over with.

With each thing that you do, all the fears in life and safeguards block out, or obscure, who you truly are. I think that just a glimpse of the person ever comes through in most material.

Fear is just not a part of my life - so much so that if it's involved in somebody else's life and they're close to me, I won't be around them.

I have a strange combination of fearlessness and massive insecurity.
