Joshua L. LiebmanMaturity is achieved when a person accepts life as full of tension; when he does not torment himself with childish guilt feelings, but avoids tragic adult sins; when he postpones immediate pleasures for the sake of long-term values....

No nobler task could be pursued by our generation.
