Childhood Quotes

Childhood in large parts of modern Britain, at any rate, has been replaced by premature adulthood, or rather adolescence Picture Quote #1

I’m pretty squeaky clean. No big tragedies in my childhood or adolescence or adulthood. I’ve had a very easygoing, simple life Picture Quote #1

War defined my entire childhood and youth and most of my adulthood too - and in the US, it continues to do so Picture Quote #1

Life after 50 or 60 is itself another country, as different as adolescence is from childhood, or as adulthood is from adolescence - and just as adventurous Picture Quote #1

I think of childhood as an explosion of creativity. For most people, growing up and earning a living means leaving all that behind. But an artist never leaves that behind. Edwin Mullhouse was my way of exploring the child as artist and, under the guise of childhood, something larger Picture Quote #1

Growing up in the business you have to grow up very fast - you do have a different type of childhood, that has its benefits and it has its drawbacks Picture Quote #1

Growing up in Chadds Ford, Pa., I shuttled between studio space in my parents’ house and my grandfather’s studio just up the hill. It was a solitary childhood, but I loved it Picture Quote #1

Growing up, music was an important part of my childhood. I see it being just as important in my children and all children’s growth and development, and in a parent’s connection with their children Picture Quote #1

I didn’t have the worst childhood, but I didn’t have the best, and when you grow up like that, you have certain limitations invariably stuck inside you. Slipknot was a way to work it out Picture Quote #1

I got bullied a lot when I was a kid, and because of that I thought for the most part that I didn’t really have a childhood - I had to grow up so quick and there was no real enjoyment in that for me Picture Quote #1

Maybe this whole obsession about colouring our hair is about our inability to grow up. To let go of the fact we aren’t children any more, and the whole thing about changing our faces and looking young, and 60 being the new 40, is maybe we don’t want to let go of our childhood Picture Quote #1

My son, Wolf, was born when I was past 40 and the author of a best-selling novel. That means he has grown up a middle-class child - one who sometimes asks me for stories of my childhood but knows nothing of what it means to grow up poor and afraid. I have worked to make sure of that Picture Quote #1

Growing up sometimes forces us to confront the distance between our childhood hope and the truth Picture Quote #1

Growing up, I had a very happy childhood, with two parents who are still very much together Picture Quote #1

Storybooks were always a big part of my imagination, and my childhood and adolescence Picture Quote #1

I feel like my imagination was crafted by Tolkien. He seemed to tap into that childhood intrigue of secret doors and hidden worlds Picture Quote #1

I feel very warm towards Mum and Dad for giving us the independence they did. My childhood, and the fact we didn’t have a TV, gave me a boundless imagination Picture Quote #1

Dark Shadows’ was the spark that lit the fire of my childhood imagination. It wasn’t polished; it wasn’t perfect. But it gave us characters with real personalities and complicated motivations Picture Quote #1

Imagination and invention go hand in hand. Remember how lack of resources was never a problem in childhood games? Shift a few pieces of furniture around the living room, and you have yourself a fort Picture Quote #1

I didn’t like Barbie dolls, so I used to have this overactive imagination, and I used to pretend to be all these different things. My weird childhood fetishes seem to have come to life now as an actor Picture Quote #1

I first came across the script for ‘Macbeth’ between the ages of 11 and 12; it was the first book that shook my life. Because I did not yet understand that I could simply purchase it in a bookstore, I copied much of it by hand and took it home. My childhood imagination pushed me to feel like a co-author of the play Picture Quote #1

A place makes a deep impression on you when you’re young. It lives with you. It’s like your childhood. It fertilises the imagination Picture Quote #1

Everyone knows that there are some odors that send you directly back to memories of your childhood - odors from Christmas time and so forth Picture Quote #1

My childhood memories of my grandparents are of a wonderful, complementary couple. While my grandfather had a spirited, humorous personality, my grandmother is gentle and poised Picture Quote #1

My dad taught me from my youngest childhood memories through these connections with Aboriginal and tribal people that you must always protect people’s sacred status, regardless of the past Picture Quote #1

My childhood memories include a time when the government confiscated my family’s possessions and exiled us to a camp in the B.C. Interior, just because my grandparents were from Japan Picture Quote #1

One of the central memories of my childhood is of hunting - not well; I am a terrible shot - quail and dove and grouse on a farm on the Tennessee River Picture Quote #1

It’s important to dress our children well. I have some wonderful memories from my childhood, and so much is associated with what I was wearing. If you look good, you feel good - simple Picture Quote #1

Poetry had great powers over me from my childhood, and today the poems live in my memory which I read at the age of 7 or 8 years and which drove me to desperate attempts at imitation Picture Quote #1

I’ve watched with a kind of wary eye how gaming has progressed. I was there at the beginning with Pong in the arcade, and a lot of my great childhood memories were around a ‘Tempest’ machine Picture Quote #1
