Text Quotes
Nearly all children have a feeling for rhythm in words, for the delicate pattern of nursery rhymes. Many adults have lost this feeling and, if they read verse at all, demand a far cruder music than that which they once appreciated.  (Adults Quotes) The United States in the 1980s may be the first society in history in which children are distinctly worse off than adults.  (Adults Quotes) I don’t care what town you’re born in, what city, what country. If you’re a child, you are curious about your environment. You’re overturning rocks. You’re plucking leaves off of trees and petals off of flowers, looking inside, and you’re doing things that create disorder in the lives of the adults around you.  (Adults Quotes) Forgiveness is what makes adults different to children: children just forget, adults forgive  (Adults Quotes) Adults, who outnumber kids four or five to one, are in charge. We wield the resources, run the world, and completely thwart kids’ creativity.  (Adults Quotes) I took care of young adults with cystic fibrosis when I was in my residency training and found this to be a disease that was desperately in need of some explanation.  (Adults Quotes) We’re allowed as adults to create a life that we like. Kids don’t have that freedom.  (Adults Quotes) Let me tell you something about full moons: kids don’t care about full moons. They’ll play in a full moon, no worries at all. They only get scared of magic or werewolves from stupid adults and their stupid adult stories.  (Adults Quotes) Kids like my act because I’m wearing nose glasses. Adults like my act because there’s a guy who thinks putting on nose glasses is funny.  (Adults Quotes) It was a dangerous profession I had chosen ... because no one likes a funny kid. In fact, adults are scared silly of them and tend to warn children who act out that they are going to wind up in prison or worse. It is only when you grow up that they pay you vast sums of money to make them laugh.  (Adults Quotes) Children have an easier ability to tap into the surreal than adults do, in a funny kind of way  (Adults Quotes) Our panaceas cure but few ails, our general hospitals are private and exclusive. We must set up another Hygeia than is now worshiped. Do not the quacks even direct small doses for children, larger for adults, and larger still for oxen and horses? Let us remember that we are to prescribe for the globe itself.  (Adults Quotes) I picture Generation X as young adults living in a state of perpetual adolescence  (Adults Quotes) It’s important that adults get along with each other for the child’s sake, and that is our situation.  (Adults Quotes) You seldom get a censorship attempt from a 14-year-old boy. It’s the adults who get upset.  (Adults Quotes) Teaching is almost like an act of prayer for me. I feel that I am present at the intersection of people and ideas in a very holy way. There are not many places where successful adults can take a break from work or domestic issues and freely and safely explore their inner lives or global issues through an ethical lens.  (Adults Quotes) The roughest thing was learning the realities of the world at such a young age. I was 10 or 11, going to church, hearing the adults standing on the podium talking about world affairs, about history, about war, and how America was founded.  (Adults Quotes) I want to point out to adults that there is a world of good material available to you now in comic form - in this medium - and learn to give it your support because the more you support it, the better the material will be as it comes out.  (Adults Quotes) If you’re going to take care of your kids and pay for your house and do something good for adults, you have to do something on television now.  (Adults Quotes) Although we human adults are really good at understanding other minds, we weren’t always that way. It takes children a long time to break into the system.  (Adults Quotes) We’re adults. We’re the ones who should teach the kids what’s good to eat. I don’t think the government should ever regulate what we eat at home, but we’re feeding them in school with tax dollars. Quite frankly, if my tax dollars are being spent to feed kids, I’d rather feed them better food.  (Adults Quotes) It would be better, in a way, if any adults present were completely uneducated. There is nothing children like more than passing on information they have just discovered to people who may not already have it - an elderly grandmother, for instance.  (Adults Quotes) I’m a severe graphic novels junkie. People ask me about it, and I say I like the graphic novels. Comic books are for kids, and graphic novels are for adults. But you can’t really separate the two.  (Adults Quotes) That partially due to the world of media and commerce, the idea of a comic book has been lost in the ghetto, whereas the graphic novel is now being held up as something to aspire to and as something that’s respectable for adults to read.  (Adults Quotes) When I started out in the eighties, the idea of creating serious comics for adults was pretty laughable to most folks, and for the longest time it was hard to even explain what alternative comics or graphic novels were. Nobody seemed to understand or care. Not so, any longer.  (Adults Quotes) My parents were children during the Great Depression of the 1930s, and it scarred them. Especially my father, who saw destitution in his Brooklyn, New York neighborhood; adults standing in so called ‘bread lines,’ children begging in the streets.  (Adults Quotes) The great news is that overwhelmingly far more than adults, youth already care about the environment. Young people are recognizing that we have largely made a mess of things with respect to the environment [and] that the burden to fix it will fall on them.  (Adults Quotes) What we have lived through, the 20th century, has been like a great party. Adults now have had the best time humanity has ever had. Now the party is over and the Earth is reckoning up.  (Adults Quotes) What we need now is the greatest generation of young adults in the history of the Church. We need your whole heart and soul. In other words, it’s time to raise the bar not only for missionaries but also for returned missionaries and for your entire generation.  (Adults Quotes) One of the greatest gifts adults can give - to their offspring and to their society - is to read to children.  (Adults Quotes)
