“It was actually books that started to make those pockets of freedom, which I hadn't otherwise experienced. I do see them as talismans, as sacred objects. I see them as something that will protect me, I suppose, that will save me from things that I feel are threatening. I still think that; it doesn't change. It doesn't change, having money, being successful. So from the very first, if I was hurt in some way, then I would take a book -- which was very difficult for me to buy when I was little -- and I would go up into the hills, and that is how I would assuage my hurt.” IfsThinkingWayFeelsFirstsLittlesStillsBookDifficultHurtSuccessfulObjectsProtectSacredHillsBeing SuccessfulPocketsThreateningSave MeTalismansI Was Hurt Author:Jeanette Winterson

“When you get in the middle of a career and you're successful, people come and offer you things. My biggest fear was that if you try to do something else and you're trying to build your music career, and then you say, "I'm going to go do a movie," and you're terrible, you can really hurt your music career because as a musician, the goal is to be cool. You're playing the guitar and you're in front of all these people and your vibe is to be as cool as you can possibly be.” PeopleIfsTryingGoalHurtCareersSuccessfulMiddleFrontsTerribleOffersMusicianGuitarSuccessful PeopleBeing CoolBiggest FearMusic Career Author:Tim McGraw
