Marx once noted with sober precision: man cannot again become a child without falling into childishness. "But does the naivety of a child really not overjoy him," he wrote further, "and should he really not try to reproduce his true essence on a higher plane?"

The differences sadly fade away, leaving only the memory of the wonderfully unique world of childhood.
