“Children know so little, they must learn quickly to imitate grown-ups whenever they feel unsure in a situation.”
“You know life is weird. There are times I feel so grown up and like I know everything I need to know, but then I think about the future and realize how little I do.”
“Grown men can learn from very little children for the hearts of the little children are pure. Therefore, the Great Spirit may show to them many things which older people miss.”
“That's the way they are. You must not hold it against them. Children should be very understanding of grown-ups.”
“All children... feel a demonic sympathy with those things that cause disorder in the grown-up world.”
“Children have one kind of silliness, as you know, and grown-ups have another kind.”
