The popularity of characters such as Tarzan shows that there is a child within all human beings, no matter how much they grow up physically.

In the last few months, I must have listened to a large number of non-filmy songs (NFSs) on the internet especially those recorded in the 40s to 60s.

Of course there are exceptions to the rule.
