If courage wasn't a standard result of aging it meant that the young could somehow acquire it as well.

For all their strength, men were sometimes like little children.

Age is no guarantee of maturity.

Patterning your life around other's opinions is nothing more than slavery.

Outings are so much more fun when we can savor them through the children's eyes.

It isn't kind to cultivate a friendship just so one will have an audience.

I've grown to realize the joy that comes from little victories is preferable to the fun that comes from ease and the pursuit of pleasure.
