Drawing Number One
“I showed the grown-ups my masterpiece, and I asked
them if my drawing scared them. They answered, ‘Why be
scared of a hat?’ My drawing was not a picture of a hat. It

The grown-ups' advised me to put away my drawings
of boa constrictors, outside or inside, and apply myself

is why, I abandoned, at the age of six, a magnificent career
as an artist. I had been discouraged by the failure of my
Drawing Number One and of my Drawing Number Two.
Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it
15 is exhausting for children to have to provide explanations
over and over again. So then I had to choose another career,
and I learned to pilot airplanes. I have flown almost

which hasn’t much improved my opinion of them.”
