To Grow Up Quotes

Each of us owes it to our spouse, our children, our friends, to be as happy as we can be. And if you don’t believe me, ask a child what it’s like to grow up with an unhappy parent, or ask parents what they suffer if they have an unhappy child Picture Quote #1

I got to grow up in a situation where drugs were demonic. To watch your dad go through heroin withdrawal is something that would keep you from doing any of that yourself Picture Quote #1

The difference between a man and a boy is, a boy wants to grow up to be a fireman, but a man wants to grow up to be a giant monster fireman Picture Quote #1

No child should be permitted to grow up without exercise for imagination. It enriches life for him. It makes things wonderful and beautiful Picture Quote #1

I want my son to grow up in a place where the people are more powerful than the government and not the other way around Picture Quote #1

On a positive note, we must reaffirm the right of children to grow up in a family with a father and a mother capable of creating a suitable environment for the child’s development and emotional maturity Picture Quote #1

I don’t think my kids have to worry too much about me embarrassing them because that’s not how I would want to grow up, with wacky dad showing up at school and performing for everyone Picture Quote #1

I don’t want my kids to grow up with no father like I did. I came to the conclusion a while ago that you can work until midnight and not be finished or you can work until 6 or 7 and not be finished. I decided I’d rather work until 6 or 7 Picture Quote #1

Kids are a great analogy. You want your kids to grow up, and you don’t want your kids to grow up. You want your kids to become independent of you, but it’s also a parent’s worst nightmare: That they won’t need you. It’s like the real tragedy of parenting Picture Quote #1

I walked over to the hill where we used to go and sled. There were a lot of little kids there. I watched them flying. Doing jumps and having races. And I thought that all those little kids are going to grow up someday. And all of those little kids are going to do the things that we do. And they will all kiss someone someday. But for now, sledding is enough. I think it would be great if sledding were always enough, but it isn’t Picture Quote #1

While we pay lip service to the virtues of reading, the truth is that there is still in our culture something that suspects those who read too much, whatever reading too much means, of being lazy, aimless dreamers, people who need to grow up and come outside to where real life is, who think themselves superior in their separateness Picture Quote #1

Yet the summer which was to change everything was coming nearer every day. When boys and girls are growing up, life can’t stand still, not even in the quietest of country towns; and they have to grow up, whether they will or no. That is what their elders are always forgetting Picture Quote #1

Our contradictions. We are in such a hurry to grow up, and then we long for our lost childhood. We make ourselves ill earning money, and then spend all our money on getting well again. We think so much about the future that we neglect the present, and thus experience neither the present nor the future. We live as if we were never going to die, and die as if we had never lived Picture Quote #1

A good father. A man with a head, a heart, and a soul. A man capable of listening, of leading and respecting a child, and not of drowning his own defects in him. Someone whom a child will not only love because he’s his father, but will also admire for the person he is. Someone he would want to grow up to resemble Picture Quote #1

I don’t know what I’m supposed to do now. I know other people have it a lot worse. I do know that, but it’s crashing in anyway, and I just can’t stop thinking that the little kid eating french fries with his mom in the shopping mall is going to grow up and my sister Picture Quote #1

The essence of independence is to be able to do something for one’s self. Adults work to finish a task, but the child works in order to grow, and is working to create the adult, the person that is to be. Such experience is not just play... it is work he must do in order to grow up Picture Quote #1

At a certain point we need to grow up; we need to look inside ourselves for our inner guidance. There are things most human beings know; they just don’t want to know them. They know deep down that certain things in their lives are working or aren’t working, that certain parts of their lives are functional and others are dysfunctional. But sometimes, as human beings, we don’t want to know what’s not convenient. So we pretend not to know Picture Quote #1

It works in the comic book, but as the audiences have gotten older and more sophisticated, I think the stories need to grow up with them. This is a story about a couple of rival gangs and what goes wrong in a couple of days Picture Quote #1

I never thought to myself, I’m going to grow up and fall in love with a man or I’m going to fall in love with a woman because my mother is a lesbian Picture Quote #1

I don’t think that left to its own devices, capitalism moves along smoothly and everyone gets treated fairly in the process. Capitalism is like a child: if you want the child to grow up free and productive, somebody’s got to look over the shoulder of that child Picture Quote #1

It’s a hard call, but I’ve no desire to live my children’s lives. I think my job as a father is to protect them, to allow them a safe place to grow up and to teach them what I’ve learned Picture Quote #1

To grow up under really simple circumstances, and to understand that certain things were ornamental... That made an impression on me as a child and is something I use Picture Quote #1

I’m in a position now where I can play certain roles and when I get older, I won’t be able to. So, I don’t have a strategy of trying to grow up too quick, I just want to kind of look at everything Picture Quote #1

It is desperately hard these days for an average child to grow up to be a man, for our present organized system does not want men. They are not safe Picture Quote #1

Trying to grow up is hurting, you know. You make mistakes. You try to learn from them, and when you don’t, it hurts even more Picture Quote #1

If anyone did that, I absolutely apologize... Because everything we do is based at adults. We’re asking adults be responsible. You were telling me about giving your children meat and milk. They’re going to be to grow up to be tubs of lard. They’re getting heart attacks Picture Quote #1

Mothers all want their sons to grow up to be president, but they don’t want them to become politicians in the process Picture Quote #1

Being a kid is so much more fun than being an adult. I think that’s the crux of it. I think men are just less inclined to grow up because it’s much more fun being a child Picture Quote #1

I think it’s important not to grow up too fast. I’m 26 now, and I still can’t wait for Christmas Day. The inner seven-year-old isn’t buried too deeply in me Picture Quote #1
