It is a successful combination of both. That way it is a process of continuing growth. Be water, my friend.”
Bruce Lee

“If we are to use the words ‘childish’ and ‘infantile’ as terms of disapproval, we must make sure that they refer only to those characteristics of childhood which we become better and happier by outgrowing.
