"All children are heartless. They have not grown a heart yet, which is why they can climb tall trees and say shocking things and leap so very high that grown-up hearts flutter in terror. Hearts weigh quite a lot. That is why it takes so long to grow one."

"الأطفال جميعهم بلا قلب. لم تنمُ لهم قلوب بعد، ولهذا السبب يستطيعون تسلق الأشجار الشاهقة، وقول أشياء صادمة، والقفز عالياً جداً لدرجة أن قلوب الكبار ترفرف رعباً. القلوب ثقيلة جداً. ولهذا السبب يستغرق نموها وقتاً طويلاً."
