Marya Hornbacher Quote
It is easy to write off childlike faith in the universe and childlike wonder at the world as simply a lack of knowledge about how life really is. Well, how is life, really? Do we know—we who have been denying life, life’s beauty and its true challenges, for such a long time? Or did we know better as children, when the whole world seemed to be filled with meaning and possibility, both good and bad?
