“Kids are never the problem. They are born scientists. The problem is always the adults. They beat the curiosity out of the kids. They out-number kids. They vote. They wield resources. That's why my public focus is primarily adults.”

“You’re dead if you aim only for kids. Adults are only kids grown up, anyway.”

“Kids who don't eavesdrop on adult conversations are doomed to a childhood of ignorance.”

“Adults are always asking little kids what they want to be when they grow up ’cause they’re looking for ideas.”

“I think a lot of times in our adult lives, we either block out or straight-up forget about the challenges of being a kid. We know it's all going to work out, but when you're a kid in that moment, it feels like the whole world is coming down on you. I'm going to try to look back and remember that when my kids get in those situations.”

“Typical Hollywood crowd - all the kids are on drugs, and all the adults are on roller skates.”

“I guess I should have written two books of my life, one for the adults and another for the kids.”

“Christophe, with the careful tone of an adult telling a kid not to pet the nice foaming-rabid pooch.”

“It’s good to be 18. For a long time I felt like I was fighting my age, like I was constantly trying to prove to people that I was a savvy peer, and I felt them viewing me as a kid. I was a cocky kid, and I felt like I was an adult at, like, 9, you know? I think that’s because my parents always treated me as an adult.”

“Kids think with their brains cracked wide open; becoming an adult, I've decided, is only a slow sewing shut.”
