Adulthood Quotes

One of the most jolting days of adulthood comes the first time you run out of toilet paper. Toilet paper, up until this point, always just existed. And now it’s a finite resource, constantly in danger of extinction, that must be carefully tracked and monitored, like pandas? Picture Quote #1

Nothing ensures the success of the child more in the society than being read to from infancy to young adulthood. Reading books to and with children is the single most important thing a parent, grandparent, or significant adult can do Picture Quote #1

One of the blessings of adulthood is that one is no longer addressed as a thing Picture Quote #1

Our children shouldn’t have to wait for adulthood to become wild readers. For many, it will be too late Picture Quote #1

It is widely known that the effects of childhood poverty follow children through adolescence and into adulthood Picture Quote #1

Just try to stay a child as long as you can. Don’t force into adulthood Picture Quote #1

Love and spiritual values received from parents are the strongest assets for a child to face the various trials of adulthood Picture Quote #1

Life is truly a ride. We’re all strapped in and no one can stop it. When the doctor slaps your behind, he’s ripping your ticket and away you go. As you make each passage from youth to adulthood to maturity, sometimes you put your arms up and scream, sometimes you just hang on to that bar in front of you. But the ride is the thing. I think the most you can hope for at the end of life is that your hair’s messed, you’re out of breath, and you didn’t throw up Picture Quote #1

If I were entering adulthood now instead of in the environment of fifty years ago, I would choose a career that kept me in touch with nature more than science... Too few natural areas remain; both by intent and by indifference we have insulated ourselves from the wilderness that produced us Picture Quote #1

To carry feelings of childhood into the powers of adulthood, to combine the child’s sense of wonder and novelty with the appearances which every day for years has rendered familiar, this is the character and privilege of genius, and one of the marks which distinguish it from talent Picture Quote #1

Marriage was a lottery, and you drew your lot in late adolescence or early adulthood at a point of maximum idiocy and confusion Picture Quote #1
