• Promiscuity does not scare me as long as she is savvy and self possessed when puberty comes to call. My aim is to simply raise my daughter to be secure in her self worth and capable of happiness all on her own.

• What is it that is done to our children that their puberty should deform them? They have the joy of movement; they have an enterprising curiosity; they are ready for sensible self-denial; they dream ahead, and they have a faithful memory, and, above all, great compassion... The well-meaning educator who flatters and humours the young not only does a disservice to the community, but also damages the individual by depriving him of the opportunities of self-discovery.

• I got married a bit late, I agree. In any other period of history I'd have been dead at that age and they'd have assumed I was gay. Like Michelangelo, or Leonardo da Vinci. But I was a late developer. I didn't go through puberty until I was 35.

• You condition a vulnerable boy at puberty to become aroused by brutality. It's the violence, not the nudity. Frankly, I wouldn't mind if every teenage boy had a subscription to Playboy. They'd be looking at attractive naked female bodies while they masturbated, not eviscerated female bodies.

• Si preguntas a un bosquimano auin qué ocurre realmente en las ceremonias de la pubertad, te dirá: "Bailamos". En las costumbres de iniciación de todos los pueblos las danzas desempeñan un papel especialmente importante. La danza es el centro de las festividades nupciales.

• Había conocido a otros prodigios en competiciones matemáticas. De hecho, había sido derrotado por competidores que probablemente se pasaban todo el día practicando problemas matemáticos y que nunca habían leído un libro de ciencia ficción y que se quemarían completamente antes de la pubertad y nunca llegarían a nada en su vida futura porque se habían limitado a practicar técnicas conocidas en lugar de aprender a pensar de forma creativa.

• Most of us abandoned the idea of a life full of adventure and travel sometime between puberty and our first job. Our dreams died under the dark weight of responsibility. Occasionally the old urge surfaces, and we label it with names that suggest psychological aberrations: the big chill, a midlife crisis.

• A rich diet does lead to earlier puberty but to my knowledge it does not student the adolescent growth spurt. Early pregnancy, before reaching adult height, does slow or stop growth.

• El desarrollo de una cápsula esterilizante de larga duración que podría implantarse bajo la piel y extraerse cuando se desee un embarazo abre posibilidades adicionales para el control coercitivo de la fertilidad. La cápsula podría implantarse en la pubertad y podría extraerse, con permiso oficial, para un número limitado de nacimientos.

• Since puberty I've always had this strange awareness that all the keener experiences I would have in my life would happen later than it would to my contemporaries. When it came to the career thing, I never worried about it. It's better if you're still peaking when you're 60, which I feel I am.

• La juventud debe mantenerse ajena a todo lo malo, y especialmente a las cosas que sugieren vicio u odio. Una vez transcurridos los cinco años, durante los dos siguientes deben fijarse en las ocupaciones que han de aprender en adelante. Hay dos períodos de la vida en los que debe dividirse la educación: desde los siete años hasta la pubertad, y de ahí en adelante hasta los veintiún años.

• I'm still in the middle of the transition. I'm still in man-boy mode. And that won't go away for a while. But it's a fun time to be in, because it's very rare that people get to work through this time. It's rare to see a John Cusack in Say Anything. It's rare that you'd find an actor right in the cusp of the child-to adult transition, just got through puberty, just getting into a different way of life. There's few movies like that, and few roles like that, so it's going to be tough to pick and choose. I guess the goal is good people, work with good people.

• When the child is twelve, your wife buys her a splendidly silly article of clothing called a training bra. To train what? I never had a training jock. And believe me, when I played football, I could have used a training jock more than any twelve-year-old needs a training bra.

• ¿Por qué mueren a la vez bandadas enteras de aves industriales? ¿Y qué pasa con la gente que come esas aves? El otro día, uno de los pediatras locales me contaba que está viendo todo tipo de enfermedades que antes no veía. No sólo diabetes juvenil, sino enfermedades inflamatorias y autoinmunes que muchos médicos ni siquiera saben cómo llamar. Y las niñas están pasando por la pubertad mucho antes; y los niños son alérgicos a casi todo, y el asma está fuera de control. Todo el mundo sabe que son nuestros alimentos... Los niños de hoy son la primera generación que crece con estas cosas.

• One thing to argue against Hillary Clinton being harmed by my saying on aging is that when you take Hollywood and television and look at the primary demographic there. Hollywood movies. Most of them are made for guys that still have acne, just reached puberty, you know, under 24. And they don't vote, the lowest common denominator in terms of age demographics.

• When a new post-war generation has grown to puberty and to youth and to manhood and womanhood, it should read, and it should be realistically told, of the futility, the idiocy, the utter depravity of war. For that matter, this instruction could begin at the age of six with the taking of those toy guns out of those toy holsters and throwing them in the ash-cans where they belong.

• Porque, niños de diez años del mundo, no deberíais creeros lo que os dicen vuestros profesores sobre vuestra belleza, singularidad y unicidad. O créetelo, copito de nieve, pero que sepas que no servirá de nada hasta después de la pubertad. Es la ley perdida de Newton: cualquier cosa que te haga único más tarde hará que te roben la leche con chocolate y te ennegrezcan el ojo de niño. ¿Verdad, Sebastian? Oh, sí, así será, mi pequeño amigo que aprende chino mandarín, recita poemas y usa zapatillas altas. Dios te bendiga, dondequiera que estés.

• Opera was an enormous part of my childhood. My parents were both opera buffs, and they met in the box seat of an opera performance. And I also was a boy soprano, so before puberty hit, I was onstage playing a wide variety of orphans and urchins in all sorts of operas, and the sheer melodrama of their stories was just always appealing to me.

• I come from that earlier time in America when palm pilot was a nickname you recieved upon entering puberty! I was more than a palm pilot I was the palm Chuck Jager.

• Most observers of the French Revolution, especially the clever and noble ones, have explained it as a life-threatening and contagious illness. They have remained standing with the symptoms and have interpreted these in manifold and contrary ways. Some have regarded it as a merely local ill. The most ingenious opponents have pressed for castration. They well noticed that this alleged illness is nothing other than the crisis of beginning puberty.

• Todos esos tipos duros que quieren asustar al mundo para que les vea como hombres. . . que no saben ser hombres con una mujer, sólo abrutos o niños, que llenan los juzgados de divorcios; todos esos asaltantes de empresas y quemadores de selvas tropicales e iniciadores de guerras que quieren más con la esperanza de que eso les haga sentirse mejor; . . sufren de Hambre de Padre. Pasan por sus rituales de pubertad día tras día durante toda la vida, esperando que un padre los unja y les diga "Attaboy", que los trate como lo suficientemente buenos para ser considerados un hombre.
