Children have a lesson adults should learn, to not be ashamed of failing, but to get up and try again.

Most middle-aged adults have resigned themselves to failure.

as all women know, there are really no men at all. There are grown-up boys, and middle-aged boys, and elderly boys, and even sometimes very old boys. But the essential difference is simply exterior. Your man is always a boy.
