    Madeleine L'Engle
    “ You have to write the book that wants to be written. And if the book will be too difficult for grown-ups, then you write it for children. ”
    ― Madeleine L'Engle

    Antoine de Saint-Exupéry
    “ Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them ”
    ― Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, The Little Prince
