Summary

This quote by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe suggests that age does not make people childish in their speech, but rather reveals their true nature as children. It implies that no matter how old we become, there will always be a childlike essence within us that can be uncovered or rediscovered with age. The quote highlights the idea that age does not necessarily diminish our childlike curiosity, innocence, or playfulness, but rather reveals these intrinsic qualities that are often obscured by the demands and expectations of adulthood.
