Famous quotes containing the words adult and/or males:
“The infant runs toward it with its eyes closed, the adult is stationary, the old man approaches it with his back turned.”
—Denis Diderot (1713–1784)
“For a boy to reach adulthood feeling that he knows his father, his father must allow his emotions to be visible—hardly an easy task when most males grow up being either subtly or openly taught that this is not acceptable behavior. A father must teach his son that masculinity and feelings can go hand in hand.”
—Kyle D. Pruett (20th century)
