Mary Renault
“A man is at his youngest when he thinks he is a man, not yet realizing that his actions must show it.”
Mary Renault, The King Must Die

John Steinbeck
“I am sifting my memories, the way men pan the dirt under a barroom floor for the bits of gold dust that fall between the cracks. It's small mining-- small mining. You're too young a man to be panning memories, Adam. You should be getting yourself some new ones, so that the mining will be richer when you come to age.”
John Steinbeck, East of Eden

“I've wanted to win at everything, every day, since I was a kid. And time doesn't change a person, it just helps you get a handle on who you are. Even at age 41, I still hate losing--I'm just more gracious about it. I'm also aware that setbacks have an upside; they fuel new dreams.”
Dara Torres, Age Is Just a Number: Achieve Your Dreams at Any Stage in Your Life

C.S. Lewis
“When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty, I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.”
C.S. Lewis, On Stories: And Other Essays on Literature

Diana Peterfreund
“There was that word again.Mature. Was this what maturity was? Giving up on the things we wanted because we knew we’d never get them?”
Diana Peterfreund
