Adventure Quote by Adriana Trigiani
““Children need to see delight in the eyes of adults, if only to give them a sense that happiness is within reach, even when it isn't. Adults should be full of possibility, so the children might develop a sense of adventure. Children should live with the confidence that they are loved. Love frees them to embrace adventure, to seek truth, and to take care of one another.””
