One Writer's Beginnings by Eudora Welty

5.0

---

"In Jackson it was counted an affront to the neighbors to start out for anywhere with an empty seat in the car. My mother sat in the back with her friend, and I'm told that as a small child I would ask to sit in the middle, and say as we started off, 'Now talk.'" (14)

"...I am a writer who came of a sheltered life. A sheltered life can be a daring life as well. For all serious daring starts within." (114)
