My Year Quotes

“...the more risks you allow children to take, the better they learn to take care of themselves. If you never let them take any risks, then I believe they become very prone to injury. Boys should be allowed to climb tall trees and walk along the tops of high walls and dive into the sea from high rocks... The same with girls. I like the type of child who takes risks. Better by far than the one who never does so.”
― Roald Dahl, My Year

“I like enthusiasts of any kind.”
― Roald Dahl, My Year

“...there are no secrets unless you keep them to yourself, and this was the greatest secret I had ever had to keep in my life so far.”
― Roald Dahl, My Year
