People forget what it was like to be young, the stuff I'm expressing now is for the first time.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Well, most grown-ups forget what it was like to be a kid. I vowed that I would never forget.
The thing to remember about being young is you eventually get old.
One of the many things nobody ever tells you about middle age is that it's such a nice change from being young.
I remember being young in the 1960s... we had a great sense of the future, a great big hope. This is what is missing in the youth today. This being able to dream and to change the world.
Now there is this whole terror about getting old. Today, that fascination with youth is overrated. What's so special about being young? I just say that because I'm old.
I can barely remember what I was like 36 years ago when I was 21 years old.
It's bad timing, but a lot of kids become teenagers just as their parents are hitting their mid-life crisis. So everybody's miserable and confused and seeking that new sense of identity.
People idealize or reminisce about their 20s, but nobody tells you beforehand that it's hard and unglamorous and often very unpleasant.
One of the most obvious facts about grown-ups, to a child, is that they have forgotten what it is like to be a child.
The world isn't going backward, if you can just stay young enough to remember what it was really like when you were really young.
