Children Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Children

1.
It goes without saying that you should never have more children than you have car windows.
Bombeck, Erma

2.
D'you call life a bad job? Never! We've had our ups and downs, we've had our struggles, we've always been poor, but it's been worth it, ay, worth it a hundred times I say when I look round at my children.
W. Somerset Maugham

3.
It's fun being a kid.
Angier, Bradford Arthur

4.
Don't throw away your friendship with your teenager over behavior that has no great moral significance. There will be plenty of real issues that require you to stand like a rock. Save your big guns for those crucial confrontations.
Dobson, Dr. James C.

5.
It needs courage to let our children go, but we are trustees and stewards and have to hand them back to life--to God. As the old saying puts it: What I gave I have. We have to love them and lose them.
Torrie, Alfred

6.
Once you bring life into the world, you must protect it. We must protect it by changing the world.
Wiesel, Elie

7.
Never have children, only grandchildren.
Gore Vidal

8.
Children's liberation is the next item on our civil rights shopping list.
Pogrebin, Letty Cottin

9.
Children and drunks always speak the truth.
Proverb

10.
But the child's sob curses deeper in the silence than the strong man in his wrath!
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

11.
A young and vital child knows no limit to his own will, and it is the only reality to him. It is not that he wants at the outset to fight other wills, but that they simply do not exist for him. Like the artist, he goes forth to the work of creation, gloriously alone.
Harrison, Jane

12.
Families with babies and families without babies are sorry for each other.
Howe, Edgar Watson

13.
Let the child's first lesson be obedience, and the second will be what thou wilt.
Franklin, Benjamin

14.
Behold the child, by nature's kindly law, pleased with a rattle, tickled with a straw.
Pope, Alexander

15.
When children are doing nothing, they are doing mischief.
Fielding, Henry

16.
Children aren't happy with nothing to ignore, and that's what parents were created for.
Nash, Ogden

17.
Children are excellent observers, and will often perceive your slightest defects. In general, those who govern children, forgive nothing in them, but everything in themselves.
FeNelon, Francois

18.
Viewing the child solely as an immature person is a way of escaping comforting him.
Moustakas, Clark

19.
I have been assured by a very knowing American of my acquaintance in London, that a young healthy child, well nursed, is at a year old, a most delicious, nourishing, and wholesome food, whether stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled; and I make no doubt that it will equally serve in a fricassee, or a ragout.
Swift, Jonathan

20.
People who get nostalgic about childhood were obviously never children.
Bill Watterson

21.
We do our children no favour by keeping them near, coddling them, or showing them off to adult visitors. Not that a nursemaid does not sometimes spoil them. But the greatest favour we can do our children is to give visible example of love and esteem to our spouse. As they grow up, they may then look forward to maturity so they too can find such love.
Eucharista Ward

22.
Even though your kids will consistently do the exact opposite of what you're telling them to do, you have to keep loving them just as much.
Cosby, Bill

23.
Ask your child what he wants for dinner only if he's buying.
Fran Lebowitz

24.
Children always turn to the light.
Hare, David

25.
My children cause me the most exquisite suffering of which I have any experience. It is the suffering of ambivalence: the murderous alternation between bitter resentment and raw-edged nerves, and blissful gratification and tenderness. Sometimes I seem to myself, in my feelings toward these tiny guiltless beings, a monster of selfishness and intolerance.
Rich, Adrienne

26.
Learning to dislike children at an early age saves a lot of expense and aggravation later in life.
Robert Byrne

27.
Alas! regardless of their doom, the little victims play! No sense have they of ills to come nor care beyond today.
Gray, Thomas

28.
If you want to see what children can do, you must stop giving them things.
Norman Douglas

29.
Who is not attracted by bright and pleasant children, to prattle, to creep, and to play with them?
Epictetus

30.
Discipline is a symbol of caring to a child. He needs guidance. If there is love, there is no such thing as being too tough with a child. A parent must also not be afraid to hang himself. If you have never been hated by your child, you have never been a parent.
Davis, Bette

31.
Let your children be as so many flowers, borrowed from God. If the flowers die or wither, thank God for a summer loan of them.
Rutherford, Samuel

32.
You may give them your love but not your thoughts. For they have their own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls, for their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
Gibran, Kahlil

33.
There is no sinner like a young saint.
Behn, Aphra

34.
Few parents nowadays pay any regard to what their children say to them. The old-fashioned respect for the young is fast dying out.
Wilde, Oscar

35.
Strange new problems are being reported in the growing generations of children whose mothers were always there, driving them around, helping them with their homework --an inability to endure pain or discipline or pursue any self-sustained goal of any sort, a devastating boredom with life.
Friedan, Betty

36.
All my life through, the new sights of Nature made me rejoice like a child.
Curie, Madame Marie

37.
A three year old child is a being who gets almost as much fun out of a fifty-six dollar set of swings as it does out of finding a small green worm.
Vaughan, Bill

38.
You see much more of your children once they leave home.
Ball, Lucille

39.
Children might or might not be a blessing, but to create them and then fail them was surely damnation.
Lois McMaster Bujold

40.
For many children, joy comes as the result of mining something unique and wondrous about themselves from some inner shaft.
Cottle, Thomas J.

41.
It is amazing how quickly the kids learn to drive a car, yet are unable to understand the lawnmower, snow-blower, or vacuum cleaner.
Bergor, Ben

42.
When you put faith, hope and love together, you can raise positive kids in a negative world.
Ziglar, Zig

43.
There are three ways to get something done: do it yourself, employ someone, or forbid your children to do it.
Crane, Monta

44.
If you raise your children to feel that they can accomplish any goal or task they decide upon, you will have succeeded as a parent and you will have given your children the greatest of all blessings.
Tracy, Brian

45.
I take my children everywhere, but they always find their way back home.
Robert Orben

46.
For truly it is to be noted, that children's plays are not sports, and should be deemed as their most serious actions.
Montaigne, Michel Eyquem De

47.
If you have a great passion it seems that the logical thing is to see the fruit of it, and the fruit are children.
Polanski, Roman

48.
For unflagging interest and enjoyment, a household of children, if things go reasonably well, certainly all other forms of success and achievement lose their importance by comparison.
Roosevelt, Theodore

49.
There is a sanctity involved with bringing a child into this world: it is better than bombing one out of it.
Baldwin, James

50.
There's no point in being grown up if you cant be childish sometimes.
Who, Dr.
