“It's so strange: grown-ups trying to become young, young ones trying to grow up and all the time, whatever people want, time moves forward, forward.”
“Growing up means :propelling yourself forward into whatever lies ahead, one turn of the wheel at a time.”
“When young people grow up....they shine so much that old people want to avert their gaze.”
“Young girls live in mythology.Their music, their moves, their relationships. Heartbreak makes them feel grown-up. Nothing a young girl wants more than to feel grown-up, and she'll lay waste to anyone for the taste of a broken heart.”
“You move forward. You face up to your challenges. You don't retreat. You're young, and sometimes you'll wish you could. But don't.”
“These young people naturally grow up with ideas different from ours, for they are born for times when we shall no longer be here”
