You can be childlike without being childish. A child always wants to have fun. Ask yourself, 'Am I having fun?'

To know God better is only to realize how impossible it is that we should ever know him at all. I know not which is more childish to deny him, or define him.

All those teams I was on that were successful were the ones that everyone had love for each other and had fun. Things that seem minuscule - joking around, laughing, conversing, all those things that seem childish - that is what builds camaraderie.

Inside, I feel 30ish - I'm childish and optimistic.

I seriously believed that my last hour was approaching, and yet, so strange is imagination, all I thought of was some childish hypothesis or other. In such circumstances, you do not choose your own thoughts. They overcome you.

I'm childish and silly. Most people tease me because I'm a bit daft.

Childish Gambino - him and I are the same age, and I really like him.

We get older and more sophisticated and a bit cleverer, but certainly boys - and men - are as childish and basic as we ever were.

Novelists who pretend to understand what keeps them scribbling are really just guessing. A profound, unmet childish need to be acknowledged? Maybe. It hardly matters, though.

I don't read 'genre' fiction if that means novels with lots of killing and shooting. Even Cormac McCarthy's 'No Country for Old Men' seemed pretty childish in that regard.

I got quite cross when I heard about Emma Thompson adapting 'Sense and Sensibility.' It was absolutely childish of me, but I thought, 'I should be doing that. They didn't even ask me.' Some mistake, surely.

I would have loved to work with Cranko. I love stories. Even though I like a lot of style - Forsythe, Maliphant - I have this childish side that likes stories.

Remaining childish is a tremendous state of innocence.

My preparation for roles are less about the character's profession than who they are, what their dreams are, and in what way are they childish.

In the case of, like, Childish Gambino, he is someone who is a writer by trade, so he is very meticulous about how he writes his ideas. I don't do this with a lot of artist, but he would give me a treatment that he wants to do, and I'll go off that; then I'll give him feedback and pitch him my ideas.

Dying people often become childish.

Something seems to happen to people when they meet a journalist, and what happens is exactly the opposite of what one would expect. One would think that extreme wariness and caution would be the order of the day, but, in fact, childish trust and impetuosity are far more common.
