“I think one thing that kids who grow up on farms really have going for them is they have exposure to death and birth in a totally different way. I think it takes away a little bit of the mystery and a little bit of the fear, and I do wish I had that. And I wish I was able to grow my own food.” ThinkingWayLittlesDifferentKidsAbleWishGrowsBitsMy OwnGrowing UpOne ThingMysteryBirthLittle BitDifferent WaysFarmsExposure Author:Rachel McAdams
“One of my best friends growing up was gay. ... It’s never been an issue for me. ... I think there was a time in my life, probably in college, that I wished every guy was gay, because it just meant more women for me! ‘I don’t know why you guys have a problem with this thing! I think it’d be great! I wish everyone was gay!’ ... That’s always the way I thought about it. ... I have no issue with it. If I have to suffer through marriage, why shouldn’t they?” IfsThinkingKnowsWayProblemGuySufferingWishGrowing UpIssuesGrowingCollegeGayMy Best FriendFriends Growing Up Author:Donald Trump, Jr.

“I would want my children to grow up and do what they wish to in a field that they choose to step in. They should not have to use the shadow of their father's name.

“God would not make me wish for something impossible and so, in spite of my littleness, I can aim at being a saint. It is impossible for me to grow bigger, so I put up with myself as I am, with all my countless faults. But I will look for some means of going to heaven by a little way which is very short and very straight, a little way that is quite new[...] It is your arms, Jesus, which are the lift to carry me to heaven, And so there is no need for me to grow up. In fact, just the opposite: I must stay little and become less and less.” WayNeedsLooksMeanLittlesI CanFactsJesusHeavenWishGrowsGrowing UpImpossibleArmsOppositesBiggerAimFaultsSaintLiftsSpiteGoing To Heaven Author:Therese of Lisieux
