Motivational Quotes

Children

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
Children Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Children

1.
Never have children, only grand children.
Vidal, Gore

2.
Nothing you do for children is ever wasted. They seem not to notice us, hovering, averting our eyes, and they seldom offer thanks, but what we do for them is never wasted.
Keillor, Garrison

3.
There are three ways to get something done: do it yourself, employ someone, or forbid your children to do it.
Crane, Monta

4.
Children also have artistic ability, and there is wisdom in there having it! The more helpless they are, the more instructive are the examples they furnish us; and they must be preserved free of corruption from an early age.
Klee, Paul

5.
A child learns to discard his ideals, whereas a grown-up never wears out his short pants.
Kraus, Karl

6.
Children are completely egoistic; they feel their needs intensely and strive ruthlessly to satisfy them.
Freud, Sigmund

7.
Our children will not survive our habits of thinking, our failures of the spirit, our wreck of the universe into which we bring new life as blithely as we do. Mostly, our children will resemble our own misery and spite and anger, because we give them no choice about it. In the name of motherhood and fatherhood and education and good manners, we threaten and suffocate and bind and ensnare and bribe and trick children into wholesale emulation of our ways.
Jordan, June

8.
There is a sanctity involved with bringing a child into this world: it is better than bombing one out of it.
Baldwin, James

9.
Never raise your hand to your children; it leaves your midsection unprotected.
Robert Orben

10.
Children are all foreigners.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

11.
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

12.
I would be the most content if my children grew up to be the kind of people who think decorating consists mostly of building enough bookshelves.
Anna Quindlen

13.
Outings are so much more fun when we can savor them through the children's eyes.
Lawana Blackwell

14.
Children need love, especially when they don't deserve it.
Hulbert, Harold

15.
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

16.
Children see in their parents the past, their parents see in them the future; and if we find more love in the parents for their children than in children for their parents, this is sad but natural. Who does not entertain his hopes more than his recollections.
Ruskin, John

17.
Every child is an artist. The problem is to remain an artist once they grow up.
Picasso, Pablo

18.
Kids are wonderful, but I like mine barbecued.
Hope, Bob

19.
The potential possibilities of any child are the most intriguing and stimulating in all creation.
Wilbur, Ray L.

20.
What is a neglected child? He is a child not planned for, not wanted. Neglect begins, therefore, before he is born.
Buck, Pearl S.

21.
Where children are, there is the golden age.
Novalis

22.
Children enjoy the present because they have neither a past nor a future.
La Bruyere, Jean De

23.
You know children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers.
Plomp, John

24.
To rescue our children we will have to let them save us from the power we embody: we will have to trust the very difference that they forever personify. And we will have to allow them the choice, without fear of death: that they may come and do likewise or that they may come and that we will follow them, that a little child will lead us back to the child we will always be, vulnerable and wanting and hurting for love and for beauty.
Jordan, June

25.
It might sound a paradoxical thing to say --for surely never has a generation of children occupied more sheer hours of parental time --but the truth is that we neglected you. We allowed you a charade of trivial freedoms in order to avoid making those impositions on you that are in the end both the training ground and proving ground for true independence. We pronounced you strong when you were still weak in order to avoid the struggles with you that would have fed your true strength. We proclaimed you sound when you were foolish in order to avoid taking part in the long, slow, slogging effort that is the only route to genuine maturity of mind and feeling. Thus, it was no small anomaly of your growing up that while you were the most indulged generation, you were also in many ways the most abandoned to your own meager devices by those into whose safe-keeping you had been given.
Decter, Midge

26.
Better a snotty child than his nose wiped off.
Proverb, English

27.
The best way to keep children home is to make the home atmosphere pleasant--and let the air out of the tires.
Dorothy Parker

28.
Don't limit a child to your own learning, for he was born in another time.
Rabbinical Saying

29.
There's no point in being grown up if you cant be childish sometimes.
Who, Dr.

30.
Little girl's definition of conscience: Something that makes you tell your mother before your brother or sister does.

31.
I take my children everywhere, but they always find their way back home.
Robert Orben

32.
What is done to children, they will do to society.
Menninger, Karl A.

33.
A child is a beam of sunlight from the Infinite and Eternal, with possibilities of virtue and vice- but as yet unstained.
Abbott, Lyman

34.
Pretty much all the honest truth telling there is in the world is done by children.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

35.
It takes three to make a child.
Cummings, E.E. (Edward. E.)

36.
Childhood sometimes does pay a second visit to man; youth never.
Jameson, Anna

37.
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

38.
Behold the child, by nature's kindly law, pleased with a rattle, tickled with a straw.
Pope, Alexander

39.
Youth isn't always all it's touted to be.
Lawana Blackwell

40.
If help and salvation are to come, they can only come from the children, for the children are the makers of men.
Montessori, Maria

41.
How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is To have a thankless child!
William Shakespeare

42.
It is not giving children more that spoils them; it is giving them more to avoid confrontation.
John Gray

43.
In all our efforts to provide advantages we have actually produced the busiest, most competitive, highly pressured, and over-organized generation of youngsters in our history.
Shan, Eda J. Le

44.
A child is fed with milk and praise.
Lamb, Mary

45.
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

46.
Before I got married, I had six theories about bringing up children. Now I have six children and no theories.
Wilmot, John

47.
Children and drunks always speak the truth.
Proverb

48.
The best way to keep children at home is to make the home a pleasant atmosphere and let the air out of the tires.
Parker, Dorothy

49.
It is not a bad thing that children should occasionally, and politely, put parents in their place.
Colette, Sidonie Gabrielle

50.
Learning to dislike children at an early age saves a lot of expense and aggravation later in life.
Robert Byrne
