“ Adults lay down rules they would not think of following, speak truths they do not believe. And yet they expect children to obey the rules, believe the truths, and admire and respect their parents for this nonsense. Children must be very wise and secret to tolerate adults at all. ”
John Steinbeck, The Log from the Sea of Cortez (1951). copy citation
