A child can be very happy with very simple things adult must do the same!
Mehmet Murat Ildan
Image
The truth is that we were born to have it all. And part of our handicap as adults is that we no longer understand our potential.
Yehuda Berg
Image
I think it would be great if more adults were able to maintain that joyful creativity that we all experience as children.
Adam Rubin
Image
Kids play make-believe all the time, so they tend to be better at using their imaginations than adults.
Adam Rubin
Image
Whatever sense of professional competence we feel in adult life is less the sum of accomplishment than the absence of impossibility: it's really our relief at no longer having to do things we were never good at doing in the first place - relief at never again having to dissect a frog or memorize the periodic table.
Adam Gopnik

Adultism leads to a phenomenon of little adults, who are young people who are treated as adults-in-the-making. A non-discriminatory perspective would be to treat children and youth as whole and complete people right now.
Adam Fletcher

I think Anderson Cooper is an opinionated, hypocritical idiot who should be an adult and keep his opinion to himself.
Dina Lohan
Image
Even when adults do feel their safety to be threatened, we may not be able to see this on the surface. Infants will react in a fashion as if they were endangered, if they are disturbed or dropped suddenly, startled by loud noises, flashing light
Abraham Maslow

Childhood lasts all through life. It returns to animate broad sections of adult life... Poets will help us to find this living childhood within us, this permanent, durable immobile world.
Gaston Bachelard
Image
I never go easy on kids when I play board games. The sooner they learn what the consequence of entering a competition is, the better. If they win, I punch them in the face like any adult.
Zach Braff
Image
I think if my daughter was interested in acting, I would find ways for her to act in theater that has to do with her school or a kids' improvisational thing. There are ways to do it where you're not on a movie set with 60 adults, which I loved at the time, but as a parent, I don't know that I'd be dying to put her in that spot.
Helen Hunt
Image
Adults are just obsolete children and the hell with them.
Dr. Seuss
Image
It seems to me that any full grown, mature adult would have a desire to be responsible, to help where he can in a world that needs so very much, that threatens us so very much.
Norman Lear
Image
Although adults have a role to play in teaching social skills to children, it is often best that they play it unobtrusively. In particular, adults must guard against embarrassing unskilled children by correcting them too publicly and against labeling children as shy in ways that may lead the children to see themselves in just that way.

Most x-rated films are advertised as adult entertaintment,for mature adults, when in reality they are juvenile entertainment for immature and insecure people.
Zig Ziglar
Image
For 24 years of my adult life, by choice I weighed well over 200 lbs. I say by choice because you see I have never accidentally eaten anything.
Zig Ziglar

I knew as a young boy that addiction and alcoholism afflict people - good, loving people - in profound ways, and that some people - usually from those rare normal families that I longed for as a child and as an adult wonder if they even exist - didn't understand this and sort of looked down their noses at people suffering with addiction.
Brian Lindstrom

We should read music in the same way that an educated adult will read a book: in silence, but imagining the sound.
Zoltan Kodaly
Image
Being born and raised as a Californian, I somewhat ignorantly had taken for granted the diversity and liberal mindset that shaped my childhood and adult life.
Carre Otis
Image
[ Adult novels] was the world of grownups. There was nothing about teenagers.
Judy Blume
Image
I'd hope that the story A Dog's Purpose helps everyone reflect on how many different lives we all live - from children to teenager to adults to seniors - and how each phase of life presents new situations along the way to discovering our ultimate purpose.
W. Bruce Cameron
Image
As I said, I spent most of my adult life thinking I didn't have a vote, and therefore that what I thought didn't matter.
2 Chainz
Image
[I]f we can bring our children understanding, comfort, and hopefulness when they need this kind of support, then they are more likely to grow into adults who can find these resources within themselves later on. (from the introduction)
Fred Rogers
Image
The difference between a baby and adult is that a baby believes in everything while the adult doubts everything. Babies also only tell the truth until they learn what a lie is.
