    “Adolescents are travelers, far from home with no native land, neither children nor adults. They are jet-setters who fly from one country to another with amazing speed.

    —Mary Pipher (20th century)

    “When a person doesn’t understand something, he feels internal discord: however he doesn’t search for that discord in himself, as he should, but searches outside of himself. Thence a war develops with that which he doesn’t understand.”
    —Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    “I never found even in my juvenile hours that it was necessary to go a thousand miles in search of themes for moralizing.”
    —Horace Walpole (1717–1797)
