I Am Only 8 Years Old, I

Come Right Up Close To Me And I Will Show You Something Wonderful.

I Have Found It Impossible To Talk To Anyone About My Problems. I Couldn't Face The Embarrassment, And Anyway I Lack The Courage. Any Courage I Had Was Knocked Out Of Me When I Was Young. But Now, All Of Sudden I Have A Sort Of Desperate Wish To Tell Everything To Somebody.

What A Fortunate Fellow I Am, I Kept Telling Myself. Nobody Has Ever Had Such A Lovely Time As This!

I Think Probably Kindness Is My Number One Attribute In A Human Being. I'll Put It Before Any Of The Things Like Courage Or Bravery Or Generosity Or Anything Else. Brian Sibley: Or Brains Even? Oh Gosh, Yes, Brains Is One Of The Least. You Can Be A Lovely Person Without Brains, Absolutely Lovely. Kindness - That Simple Word. To Be Kind - It Covers Everything, To My Mind. If You're Kind That's It.

A Person Who Has Good Thoughts Cannot Ever Be Ugly.
