Growing up quotes

To exist is to change, to change is to mature, to mature is to go on creating oneself endlessly.

Diane Arbus

I was wise enough to never grow up while fooling most people into believing I had.
Margaret Mead

You grow up the day you have your first real laugh at yourself.
Ethel Barrymore

Madeleine L'Engle
