"We should consider the idea that youth is not actually wasted on the young. That their dramas are no more grand than they should be. That their emotions make perfect sense, once you adjust for inflation. For someone going through adolescence, life feels epic and tragic simply because it is: every kink in your day could easily warp the arc of your story. Because each year is worth a little less than the last."
Anybody know who said this? I think someone on this forum used it once in the last month, I was simply wondering if there was a name to match the message. For a project, thanks.
