By the Mouth of Children

“Be free, happy, simple, a child. But be a sturdy child, who fears nothing, who speaks frankly, who lets himself be led, who is carried in the arms; in a word, one who knows nothing, can do nothing, can anticipate and change nothing, but who has a freedom and a strength forbidden to the great. This childhood baffles the wise, and God himself speaks by the mouth of such children.”

Francois Fenelon
