Some Day I'm Going To Climb Everest.

I Was Not A Beater Of Children And As A Consequence I've Always Been, I Think, Very Agreeable And Co-operative.

I Still Had The Same Affection For New Zealand As I've Always Had. Didn't Change At All.

We Had So Much In Common [with June Hillary] That We Just Carried On With Life As We Had Been Doing. It Wasn't Easy, But It Was - I Realise Now That It Was The Only Thing To Do.

I Was Incredibly Stubborn. I Mean, I Believe That My Father Was Frequently In The Right, But I Would Never Admit It, And So We Did Have A Few Set-tos On Various Topics; But On The Whole As I Got Older And My Father Got More Mature We Got Along Reasonably Well.

Nothing Can Replace Courage, A Resounding Motivation And That Little Bit Of Luck.
