"Children are overbearing, supercilious, passionate, envious, inquisitive, egotistical,……" — Jean de la Bruyere

"Children are overbearing, supercilious, passionate, envious, inquisitive, egotistical, idle, fickle, timid, intemperate, liars, and dissemblers; they laugh and weep easily, are excessive in their joys and sorrows, and that about the most trifling objects; they bear no pain, but like to inflict it on others; already they are men."
