“I have always believed in the magic of childhood and think that if you get your life right that magic should never end.

“It would be hard to imagine Heaven without children. It wouldn't be Heaven! It would be a pretty boring place without children. What are we going to do, all get to be old people and then stagnate and that's the end of it?
