We all create the person we become by our choices as we go through life. In a real sense, by the time we are adults, we are the sum total of the choices we have made Picture Quote #1

If we’re capable of conjuring up terrifying monsters in childhood, why shouldn’t some of us, at least on occasion, be able to fantasize something similar, something truly horrifying, a shared delusion, as adults? Picture Quote #1

When we are children, people show us so many things that we lose the profound sense of seeing... And just how could adults show us the world they have lost! They know; they think they know; they say they know Picture Quote #1

I find more and more, as I grow older, that I prefer women to men, children to adults, animals to humans... And rocks to living things? No, I’m not that old yet Picture Quote #1

Children don’t vote but adults who do must stand up and vote for them Picture Quote #1

How are children supposed to learn to act like adults, when so much of what they see on television shows adults acting like children? Picture Quote #1

Note that venerable proverb: Children and fools always speak the truth. The deduction is plain: adults and wise persons never speak it Picture Quote #1

Most of us remember adolescence as a kind of double negative: no longer allowed to be children, we are not yet capable of being adults Picture Quote #1

Children or babies learn to mimic the vibration of the adults who surround them long before they learn to mimic their words Picture Quote #1

Teens like a lot of the same things adults do: smart people doing amazing things against awful odds Picture Quote #1

I feel very lucky to have grown up having interaction with adults who were making change but who were far from perfect beings. That feeling of not being paralyzed by your incredible inadequacy as a human being, which I feel every day, is a part of the legacy that I’ve gotten from so many of the adult elders Picture Quote #1

The truth is that since childhood I had cultivated an existential independence. It came from perceiving the adults around me as unreliable, and without it I felt I wouldn’t have survived. I cared deeply for everyone in my family, but in the end I depended on myself Picture Quote #1

No one is willing to believe that adults too, like children, wander about this earth in a daze and, like children, do not know where they come from or where they are going, act as rarely as they do according to genuine motives, and are as thoroughly governed as they are by biscuits and cake and the rod Picture Quote #1
