They don’t have time to move closer, to return home. When you know you’re going to die, you try to be near the bones of your own people. You don’t even think you have bones when you’re young, even when you break them, you don’t believe you have them. But when you’re old, they start reminding you they’re there. They start turning to dust on you, even as you’re walking here and there, going from place to place. And this is when you crave to be near the bones of your own people. My children never felt this. They had to look death in the face, even before they knew what it was. Just like you did, no?","author":"Edwidge Danticat","tags":["bones","death","home","move","return","young"],"id":410,"author_id":"Edwidge+Danticat"},{"text":"When I was really young, I can remember being into fashion, but I was really into horses and sports.","author":"Kendall Jenner","tags":["fashion","remember","young "],"id":2288,"author_id":"Kendall+Jenner"},{"text":"Death is a distant rumor to the young.","author":"Andy Rooney","tags":["young","distant","rumor "],"id":4700,"author_id":"Andy+Rooney"},{"text":"How can a society that exists on instant mashed potatoes, packaged cake mixes, frozen dinners, and instant cameras teach patience to its young?","author":"Paul Sweeney","tags":["society","cake","young "],"id":5104,"author_id":"Paul+Sweeney"},{"text":"Life is a process during which one initially gets less and less dependent, independent, and then more and more dependent.","author":"Mokokoma Mokhonoana","tags":["adage","adages","adolescent","adolescents","adult","adulthood","adults","africa","african","ancient","aphorism","aphorisms","axiom","axioms","child","children","dead","death","deep","dependence","dependent","develop","developing","development","dictum","dictums","epigram","epigrams","existence","four-stages-of-life","funny","gnome","gnomes","grandparent","grandparents","grow","growing","growth","humor","humorous","humour","immortal","immortality","independence","independent","infant","infants","insightful","life","made-me-think","make-you-think","maxim","maxims","mortal","mortality","newborn","newborns","old","old-age","old-age-home","old-age-homes","phase","phases","philosopher","prepubescent","process","profound","proverb","proverbs","provoke-thought","quotation","quotations","quote","of-the-day","quotes","retire","retired","retiree","retirees","retirement","satire","satirical","satirist","satirists","saying","sayings","senile","senility","south-africa","south-african","stage","stages","stages-of-life","teenage","teenager","teenagers","thought-provoking","thoughtful","young","youth","youths"],"id":6452,"author_id":"Mokokoma+Mokhonoana"},{"text":"A distaste for the new is not always fear of the unknown, but sometimes ambition.
