What a distressing contrast there is between the radiant intelligence of the child and the feeble mentality of the average adult. ~Sigmund Freud
The great man is he who does not lose his child's-heart. ~Mencius, Book IV
The end of childhood is when things cease to astonish us. When the world seems familiar, when one has got used to existence, one has become an adult. ~Eugene Ionesco
Think what a better world it would be if we all - the whole world - had cookies and milk about three o’clock every afternoon and then lay down with our blankets for a nap. ~Robert Fulghum, All I Really Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten
Oh, how I like Robert Fulghum's idea. Cookies and milk with a nice long nap with my favorite blanket.
