Adolescence represents an inner emotional upheaval, a struggle between the eternal human wish to cling to the past and the equally powerful wish to get on with the future.

Adolescence is the conjugator of childhood and adulthood.

Children, even infants, are capable of sympathy. But only after adolescence are we capable of compassion.

A revolution is a struggle to the death between the future and the past.

The time has come to lay that baggage down and leave behind all the struggling and striving. You can be set free as you journey forward into a balanced healthy and rewarding future.

The present is an eternal attempt to separate the past from the future.
