Rodney Dangerfield
“When I was a kid my parents moved a lot, but I always found them.”
Rodney Dangerfield

“Parents have this twisted belief that anyone under the age of about twenty simply can’t know what love is, like the age to love is assessed in the same way the law assesses the legal age to drink. They think that the ‘emotional growth’ of a teenager’s mind is too underdeveloped to understand love, to know if it’s ‘real’ or not.
That's completely asinine.
The truth is that adults love in different ways, not the only way.”
J.A. Redmerski, The Edge of Never
