The World War I, I’m a child of World War I. And I really know about the children of war. Because both my parents were both badly damaged by the war.

I’ll never believe I’m any older than 18. I get angry when my body can’t do what an 18-year-old’s does. And looking in the mirror is really a tragic sight. There are many consolations to getting older, but physically, it’s quite unkind. I find that I have as much mobility, but it takes longer to get pretty.
