A childlike mind, in its simplicity, practices that science of good to which the wise may be blind.
It always grieves me to contemplate the initiation of children into the ways of life when they are scarcely more than infants. - It checks their confidence and simplicity, two of the best qualities that heaven gives them, and demands that they share our sorrows before they are capable of entering into our enjoyments.
Friedrich Chiller
Charles Dickens
