Adulthood Quotations
0

~ I sometimes ask myself how it came about that I was the one to develop the theory of relativity. The reason, I think, is that a normal adult never stops to think about problems of space and time. These are things which he has thought about as a child. ~


~ If you treat a sick child like an adult and a sick adult like a child, everything usually works out pretty well. ~


~ A boy becomes an adult three years before his parents think he does, and about two years after he thinks he does ~


~ I was happy but happy is an adult world. You don't have to ask a child about happy, you see it. They are or they are not Adults talk about being happy because largely they are not. Talking about it is the same as trying to catch the wind. Much easier to let it blow all over you. This is where I disagree with the philosophers. They talk about passionate things but there is no passion in them. Never talk happiness with a philosopher ~


~ The great challenge of adulthood is holding on to your idealism after you lose your innocence ~

~ Study is the bane of childhood, the oil of youth, the indulgence of adulthood, and a restorative in old age ~


~ A child becomes an adult when he realizes that he has a right not only to be right but also to be wrong ~


~ To speak truly, few adult persons can see nature. Most persons do not see the sun. At least they have a very superficial seeing. The sun illuminates only the eye of the man, but shines into the eye and heart of the child ~


~ Adults are just obsolete children and the hell with them. ~


~ We have not passed that subtle line between childhood and adulthood until we move from the passive voice to the active voice - that is, until we stop saying "It got lost," and say "I lost it." ~


~ To be a healthy person, you have to be sympathetic to the child you once were and maintain the continuity between you as a child and you as an adult ~


~ If this was adulthood the only improvement she could detect in her situation was that she could now eat dessert without eating her vegetables ~
