Question

Include your opinion on the quote’s truthfulness to today’s society, and a specific example of how that quote may be applied in today’s society (if, indeed, it may).
“Children, who play life, discern its true law and relations more clearly than men, who fail to live it worthily, but who think that they are wiser by experience, that is, by failure.” -Thoreau

Answer 1

even with having the experience you still will not know more than others because there is always someone on top of us. As children we find everyone as the same and can't tell differences and failures.

Explanation:

this can be applied to society because when we are children we view everyone the same but when we start to grow people start to discriminate people's knowledge because they aren't at a high level of experience as others.
