I was not a beater of children and as a consequence I've always been, I think, very agreeable and co-operative.
Edmund HillaryI have discovered that even the mediocre can have adventures and even the fearful can achieve.
Edmund HillaryI always refused to give in if there was some argument with my father. Whether it was true or not, I refused to admit it and so often I would - well, tell lies, perhaps. I would either do that or change the story. Particularly if I felt that my father was being unjust, then I was very strongly motivated to not accept his ruling.
