"What’s child? What’s adult? Everybody is everything. It has more to do with a feeling. You don’t get rid of who you are or where you come from, but the point is, everybody is trying to get back to a certain kind of purity anyway. Why are people looking for escape in movies or drugs or drinking or amusement parks? Or anything? Why does anybody read? Because it’s a form of escape, or a form of recapturing - not a “childish” impulse, but a way of looking at the world as if it were fresh and interesting. It has less to do with being a child than it has to do with keeping an open, wonderful, twisted view of the world."
- Tim Burton
