About This Quote

"I was with book, as a woman is with child" is a quote that I love because it shows the innocence and naivety that we hold when we are in our youth. According to the dictionary, our age and gender define us and in this quote we see just how young and innocent we really are. The next time someone tells you that you seem so childish when you talk about your favorite book or when you complain about your hair, just remember how young and innocent you once were when you were reading your favorite book.
