“This is not a topic reserved exclusively for the imagination of children, which is exactly why I think it’s especially appropriate for them, as they like to deal with problems that are bigger than themselves. It is the only means they have at their disposal to grow. And there is no doubt that, above all and more than anything else, they want to grow.”

“I’m well aware that the future will rarely be as beautiful as a fairy tale. But that’s not what counts. When they are little, children must stick up on the optimism and confidence necessary to take on the challenge of life. And then, let’s not underestimate the educational value of utopia.

“If I’m not mistaken, the game of hide-and-seek also has something to do with the pleasure children take in riddles… Being found is like being born again, returning to the world, regaining one’s freedom. Before, I wasn’t here; now, I am. I no longer exist; here I am again. These challenges reinforce the child’s feeling of security, his capacity to grow, his pleasure in existing and knowing.”
