Childish raptures!

Summary

The quote "Childish raptures!" encapsulates the idea that some expressions of excitement or delight might be perceived as overly childish or immature by others.

It serves as a reminder of society's expectations regarding the appropriate ways to express emotions and showcases the tension between our innate yearning for wonder and the pressure to conform to a more subdued demeanor.
