Lots of us when we're children believe 'oh well, if the world knew us as we really are, they'd know what wonderful, clever, brilliant, charming people we really are.'
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I was one of those kids who always thought that we should know how the world works around us.
I mean, obviously, a lot of people know me around the world. Kids know me.
My children are delightful people, whom I would love even if they weren't my children.
Children reinvent your world for you.
People say children are charming because they tell the truth. That's a lie. I've got five of them. They only tell the truth if they're in pain.
I consider myself very fortunate indeed to have created a character which has captured the imagination and enthusiasm of so many children worldwide. They are my family, and Spot belongs to them all.
Children are so creative and imaginative that they just bring you to life all over again.
I believe in my kids 100 percent. When you have confidence in them, they have confidence in themselves.
I like children; I like 'em, and I respect 'em. Pretty much all the honest truth-telling there is in the world is done by them.
As a child I knew almost nothing, nothing beyond what I had picked up in my grandmother's house. All children, I suppose, come into the world like that, not knowing who they are.
