The creative adult is the child who has survived.
Ursula K. Le Guin

College is such a unique time because you're learning a little bit how to be an adult. You're learning how to take care of yourself without parental influence, and you're exposed to so many great minds. I feel like I didn't even know how to think until I got to college.

The comics I read as a kid were much more influenced by TV and movies. Encountering superheroes as an adult without that kind of childhood sentimentality, it just doesn't allow you, or in my case at least, it wouldn't let me take the characters seriously.

There's nothing wrong with making little kids happy, but there's nothing wrong with wanting to be an adult actress. I mean a grown-up actress.

I care so passionately about improving the quality of life for women and girls, not just here in the United States, but internationally as well. I am a single mom and I raised a daughter who is now a young adult.

Another thing I liked about my Dad at church: he did his sleeping at home. He never used the church as an adult nursery.

But I don't think I've grown up to be a damaged adult.
Vanessa Mae

I don't carry a purse when I fly because I have my Hello Kitty carry-on. I'm the biggest adult supporter.
Venus Williams

When you're a student and you just want some money to feel like you're an adult, you'll pretty much do anything within reason.
Simon Pegg

The adult who is constantly changing friends and changing mates is immature. He/she cannot stick it out because he/she has not grown up.
Ann Landers

In my adult life, I had spent a lot of time angry at God, mostly over the sudden deaths in my family - my brother at 30, my daughter at 5.
Ann Hood

To wake up one morning and feel that I was a last a grown-up person, emptied of resentment, vengeful thoughts and other wasteful childish emotions. To find myself, in other words, an adult. Truman Capote

When you grow up in a place (whether as a child or an adult) you squeeze everything out of it. You need so much when you're young.

There’s something about seeing an adult you knew in childhood that makes them marginally vulnerable to you, and vice versa. There’s also something comforting in thinking that if they made it this far, relatively unscathed, then maybe you didn’t turn out half bad either.

If someone dies as a child, they go to heaven. But, as an adult, he made a choice of accepting Christianity, so, that's not apostacy. If he was a Muslim as an adult, then changed, that would be apostacy.

It's true that the French have a certain obsession with sex, but it's a particularly adult obsession. France is the thriftiest of all nations to a Frenchman sex provides the most economical way to have fun. The French are a logical race.

I've learned... That simple walks with my father around the block on summer nights when I was a child did wonders for me as an adult.

Play Therapy is based upon the fact that play is the child's natural medium of self-expression. It is an opportunity which is given to the child to 'play out' his feelings and problems just as, in certain types of adult therapy, an individual 'talks out' his difficulties.

I had this rare privilege of being able to pursue in my adult life, what had been my childhood dream.
Andrew Wiles

Rearing a family is probably the most difficult job in the world. It resembles two business firms merging their respective resources to make a single product. All the potential headaches of that operation are present when an adult male and an adult female join to steer a child from infancy to adulthood.
Virginia Satir

I think Girls is so great, because versions of it are close to my own experience of moving to New York. It's a fun. You know - get to be messy and silly and irresponsible, but also wrap that up at the end of the day and be an adult. It's a fun time, but not necessarily one you want to stay in for too long.
Andrew Rannells

When I first saw a picture of the crucifixion, I lost respect for my parents. I suddenly realised that this is what the adult world is like - full of cruelty and hypocrisy.
Vivienne Westwood

It's not a character flaw to become an adult.

I'm an adult and I know what power means in the modern world. In the modern world, power is mainly defined by such factors as the economy, defence and cultural influence. I believe that in terms of defence, Russia is without any doubt one of the leaders because we are a nuclear power and our nuclear weapons are perhaps the best in the world.
