Quote

I was an escapee of childhood. I always wanted to grow up.

We all have an escape. Mine was theater.

I have been desperate to escape for so many years now, it is routine for me to try to escape.

I wanted to escape so badly. But of course I knew I couldn't just give up and leave school. It was only when I heard my mom's voice that I came out of my hiding place.

My escape is to just get in a boat and disappear on the water.

I escaped one time. In 1971 I was in the free world for six weeks.

I used to dream of being other places, other people. It was an escape for me.

Books were this wonderful escape for me because I could open a book and disappear into it, and that was the only way out of that house when I was a kid.

I grew up in an era of thinking of travel as escape. The idea that you could conceivably have a new life, go somewhere, fall in love, have little children under the palm trees.
