Jeanette Winterson Quote

You are young, said my father. You won't get any younger even if you clean your teeth twice a day.You'll get older, said my mother, that's what happens.Then what happens?You won't be able to find the treasure.Will I be too old to look for it?No, but you'll be looking in the wrong place.
