"Jeg havde den lykke at vokse op på et sted, hvor der var højt til himlen og langt til horisonten, i et blæsende, nordjysk klima. Der var udsigt og adgang til Limfjordens holme, blinkende laguner og piskende rørskove, til øde, kuplede hededrag med sletter, spredte småplantager, moser og enge. - Her var ingen brug for fantasi.
