““But no-one has the right to undermine or obstruct the hopes and aspirations of the young on the basis of one's own experience. It is quite wrong to be a doom-monger. No, one should keep one's peace and just nod one's head in agreement. To launch young people on their way, one should provide them with all the space and opportunities that one can and then leave the rest up to them and up to luck. That is what I did for my children.””
