english: So there's a famous quote by Shakespeare from "The Winter's Tale" where he describes adolescence as follows: "I would there were no age between ten and three-and-twenty, or that youth would sleep out the rest; for there is nothing in the between but getting wenches with child, wronging the ancientry, stealing, fighting." (Laughter) He then goes on to say, "Having said that, would any but these boiled brains of nineteen and two-and-twenty hunt in this weather?" (Laughter) So almost 400 years ago, Shakespeare was portraying adolescents in a very similar light to the light that we portray them in today, but today we try to understand their behavior in terms of the underlying changes that are going on in their brain.

Nato nadaljuje: "Kljub temu pa, ali bi kdorkoli drug kot ti kuhani možgani devetnajst- in dvaindvajsetletnikov lovili v tem vremenu?" Torej, skoraj 400 let nazaj je Shakespeare mladostnike opisoval v zelo podobni luči, kot jih prikazujemo danes, z razliko, da danes poskušamo razumeti njihovo obnašanje v smislu sprememb, ki se dogajajo v njihovih možganih.
