Adult Quotes

One of the things that I really like about young adult fiction is that you can explore the relationships between teens and their parents. I definitely think that teens are a product of their parents. You either end up just like them or you consciously make the decision to be unlike them Picture Quote #1

There’s not one film that I’ve ever made that could get made today by a studio, not one - even ‘A Few Good Men’ because it’s an adult courtroom drama, and studios do not make them any more. And so every movie that I make, have made and will make is always going be independently financed Picture Quote #1

Every young person needs some adult who’s just wild and crazy about them! Picture Quote #1

That’s true for most people, but black males age 13 who have been raised on the streets and who have joined criminal gangs are as big, strong, tough, scary and culpable as any adult and should be treated as such Picture Quote #1

Not one day of my mother’s adult life passed without some critical demand on her maternal role, without some urgent response from her Picture Quote #1

I’ve always wanted to do an adult cartoon, because I want a job where you can just drive up in your pajamas, have a cup of tea and not even get dressed, and you’ve gone to work for the day. What a great gig! Picture Quote #1

I was born in a hurricane in Pensacola, Florida... my dad was in the military, so we moved all over the place. But I consider myself a southerner from Louisiana. I’ve lived in Texas for most of my adult life Picture Quote #1

Twitter is one of those dangerous toys that if it gets in the hands of the wrong person you’ll have the mind of a 12-year-old masquerading as an adult Picture Quote #1

That is the really great thing about being an adult male, once you get married and have children the whole decision-making process is taken out of your hands, and I for one am extremely grateful Picture Quote #1

As an adult, I have often been deep in serious conversation with someone I’ve highly respected and seen them roll an eye as my mouth has mangled yet another magnificently conceived, clumsily articulated sentence.

When I was growing up in the Forties and Fifties, you could hide your children from the difficulties of life, but today you can’t separate children’s contact with the adult world today Picture Quote #1

The sad discovery of the adult world was the permanent truth: you don’t always do what you want to do; you do what you must Picture Quote #1

Such is the breathtaking speciesism of our Christian-inspired attitudes, the abortion of a single human zygote can arouse more moral solicitude and righteous indignation than the vivasection of any number of intelligent adult chimpanzees!
