Will Smith’s son, Jaden Smith, once pondered on Twitter, “How can mirrors be real if our eyes aren’t real?” Now, the 16-year-old actor/rapper has shared his mystical reflections with the New York Times’ T magazine, discussing quantum physics, the unreality of time, and Final Cut Pro with his 14-year-old sister, Willow. But we found the Smith kids’ musings less those of weird celebrity children and more those of genuinely searching young people who’ve spent a lot of time thinking about the universe. We were kind of impressed! Could the Smith kids be the young spiritual leaders we need to guide us into the new age?

Take our quiz below. For each quote, can you tell whether the Smith kids or a famous guru said it?
