About This Quote

The idea of being “grass” is used to describe people who are not yet fully developed. Interestingly, the concept of being “grass” was created by a child. A young girl once told her mother that she was not yet fully developed. The mother then told her that she must be cut down to size. The child, however, did not stop growing and eventually became the grass.
