“The essence of spirit, he thought to himself, was to choose the thing which did not better ones position but made it more perilous. That was why the world he knew was poor, for it insisted morality and caution were identical.”

“In 1600 the specialization of games and pastimes did not extend beyond infancy; after the age of three or four it decreased and disappeared. From then on the child played the same games as the adult, either with other children or with adults. . . . Conversely, adults used to play games which today only children play.”
—Philippe Ariés (20th century)
