Julie Taymor Quotes About Children

• Learning is about much more than science and math. Doing theater, music, and art in school really helps children's minds grow because they're using different parts of their brains. Parents who care should insist on that.

• I know I'm missing something, but those who have children are missing what I get to do. And frankly, I'm probably missing more of what I don't want than what I do. Some may call me selfish or narcissistic, but I don't want to spend my time going to PTA meetings. The only way I could have children and do the work I do is to have a househusband - and I'm not attracted to a househusband. I'd rather affect children with the work I do.

• Growing up I had amazing parents who really let me be creative and free. I was the youngest of three by six years, the child who was the outsider and observer. When I went off to Boston to act, I was very young - 10. And my parents didn't fear that. They had the respect to let me make my choices.

• Because my parents had given me tremendous respect, trust, and freedom as a child, I knew how to take responsibility for myself. If you're constantly being told "No, don't do that" or "We don't trust you," you can't develop that responsibility.

• Cuando éramos niños, cogías un papelito y lo ponías en un palo; y cuando lo agitabas de un lado a otro, comprendías el poder del aire bajo las alas. De ese modo, un niño empieza a entender la abstracción, la poesía, la metáfora, el simbolismo. Juegas con los materiales que tienes y utilizas tu imaginación para convertirlos en otra cosa. Eso es lo triste de tenerlo todo en una pantallita: no es físico ni dimensional, y eso parece un atraso.
