"It's human nature to be curious about people, and to be more curious about young people than old people. We want to cheer something on at the same time we want to tear it down. That's just so normal"

- Amy Grant

About this Quote

This quote by Amy Grant talks to the duality of humanity. We are naturally curious about individuals, specifically youths, and this curiosity typically results in both favorable and negative responses. We want to cheer young people on and support them, however at the exact same time, we might also be lured to tear them down. This is a normal part of human nature, and it is very important to remember that it is not always a bad thing. It is simply a part of our nature that we should learn to accept and comprehend. We can use this duality to our benefit, by using our curiosity to support and motivate youths, while also bearing in mind our own responses and how they might affect others.
