Quote by Helena Bonham Carter

I don't think kids have a problem with death. It's us older ones who are nearer to it, that start being frightened.

I don't think kids have a problem with death. It's us older

Summary

This quote suggests that children are not inherently fearful of death, whereas adults, who are closer to experiencing it, tend to be afraid. It implies that as we grow older and become more aware of our mortality, the fear of death begins to manifest. Children, on the other hand, may have a more innocent and accepting perspective towards death, possibly due to their limited understanding or lack of personal experience with it.

The true reader reads every work seriously in the sense that he reads it whole-heartedly, makes himself as receptive as he can. But for that very reason he cannot possibly read every work solemly or gravely. For he will read 'in the same spirit that the author writ.'... He will never commit the error of trying to munch whipped cream as if it were venison.
