A Quote by Paul Young

I led a sheltered life. I didn't know how to book a flight. — © Paul Young
I led a sheltered life. I didn't know how to book a flight.
I’m beginning to think I’ve led a much too sheltered life.
I led such a sheltered life I didn't go out with girls until I was almost four.
I missed out on my teenage years. I led a sheltered life. I was practicing scales instead of playing football.
I led a sheltered life until I went to college. But I wasn't deprived and I can't say I missed anything as a kid except a lot of heartaches.
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 from within.
I missed out on my teenage years. I led a sheltered life. I was practicing scales instead of going out there and playing football.
Those who believe in God because their experience of life and the facts of nature prove his existence must have led sheltered lives and closed their hearts to the voice of their brothers' blood.
They know how to think. From the Arabs I have learned one thing: if you are led by Authority, that means you are led by a halter.
Life is just like a book. Only after you've read it do you know how it ends. It is when we are at the end of life that we know how our life ran. Mine, until now, has been black. As black as my skin. Black as the garbage dump where I live.
A silly idea is current that good people do not know what temptation means. This is an obvious lie. Only those who try to resist temptation know how strong it is... A man who gives in to temptation after five minutes simply does not know what it would have been like an hour later. That is why bad people, in one sense, know very little about badness. They have lived a sheltered life by always giving in.
After a sheltered life, I went the other way. I wanted to prove how tough I was.
For those who fight for it life has a flavor the sheltered will never know
Then there was the challenge to keep doing better and better, to fly the best test flight that anybody had ever flown. That led to my being recognized as one of the more experienced test pilots, and that led to the astronaut business.
My flight time is important to me; I actually prefer a longer flight to a short one. That way I have time to read a book, watch movies, and think about new dishes.
In America, we tend to be very sheltered, and I'm speaking from personal experience because I feel sheltered.
I seem to have come out of the womb with existential angst and wasn't a happy kid, so I've been on a lifelong search trying to discover how to live the best life possible. I committed my life to doing what I could to experience greater happiness, which ultimately led me to write a book on the subject called Happy for No Reason.
