"A matured woman is therefore a responsible woman irrespective of her age, status and qualification."

"You know what the worst thing about adults is? ...They're not always adults. But that's what I like about them."

"A mature person reaps joy in the commonplace acts of living, appreciates the serenity of just being, while balancing the responsibilities that come naturally about when deeply immersed in family and community affairs. Directing their attention outward, assisting other people in their troubled times, while denying themselves the indulgence of self-absorption frees a person's bidding mind from a jumble of discordant thoughts, wants, and unholy bequests."
