Children Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Children

1.
The reason grandparents and grandchildren get along so well is that they have a common enemy.
Sam Levenson

2.
Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him. [Proverbs 22:15]
Bible

3.
Too often when give children answers to remember rather than problems to solve.
Lewin, Roger

4.
We cannot fashion our children after our desires, we must have them and love them as God has given them to us.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

5.
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

6.
Americans, indeed, often seem to be so overwhelmed by their children that they'll do anything for them except stay married to the co-producer.
Whitehorn, Katharine

7.
Adults are obsolete children.
Seuss, Dr.

8.
We inevitably doom our children to failure and frustration when we try to set their goals for them.
Lair, Dr. Jess

9.
There is no sinner like a young saint.
Behn, Aphra

10.
You can learn many things from children. How much patience you have, for instance.
Jones, Franklin P.

11.
What's more enchanting than the voices of young people, when you can't hear what they say?
Smith, Logan Pearsall

12.
But the child's sob curses deeper in the silence than the strong man in his wrath!
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

13.
There was a time when we expected nothing of our children but obedience, as opposed to the present, when we expect everything of them but obedience.
Anatole Broyard

14.
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

15.
A child is beset with long traditions. And his infancy is so old, so old, that the mere adding of years in the life to follow will not seem to throw it further back -- it is already so far.
Meynell, Alice

16.
Don't limit a child to your own learning, for he was born in another time.
Rabbinical Saying

17.
What is done to children, they will do to society.
Menninger, Karl A.

18.
How little is the promise of the child fulfilled in the man.
Ovid

19.
It is not a bad thing that children should occasionally, and politely, put parents in their place.
Colette, Sidonie Gabrielle

20.
No man can tell but he that loves his children, how many delicious accents make a man's heart dance in the pretty conversation of those dear pledges; their childishness, their stammering, their little angers, their innocence, their imperfections, their necessities, are so many little emanations of joy and comfort to him that delights in their persons and society.
Taylor, Jeremy

21.
I must take issue with the term'a mere child,'for it has been my invariable experience that the company of a mere child is infinitely preferable to that of a mere adult.
Fran Lebowitz

22.
Never raise your hand to your children; it leaves your midsection unprotected.
Robert Orben

23.
Children are the only form of immortality that we can be sure of.
Peter Ustinov

24.
I am amused when goody-goodies proclaim, from the safety of their armchairs, that children are naturally prejudice-free, that they only learn to "hate" from listening to bigoted adults. Nonsense. Tolerance is a learned trait, like riding a bike or playing the piano. Those of us who actually live among children, who see them in their natural environment, know the truth: Left to their own devices, children will gang up on and abuse anyone who is even slightly different from the norm.
Josh Lieb

25.
Anyone who uses the phrase'easy as taking candy from a baby'has never tried taking candy from a baby.

26.
Birds in their little nest agree; and 'Tis a shameful sight, when children of one family fall out, and chide, and fight.
Watts, Isaac

27.
Too many parents are not on spanking terms with their children.

28.
Who is not attracted by bright and pleasant children, to prattle, to creep, and to play with them?
Epictetus

29.
You see much more of your children once they leave home.
Ball, Lucille

30.
We worry about what a child will be tomorrow, yet we forget that he is someone today.
Tauscher, Stacia

31.
A child of five would understand this. Send someone to fetch a child of five.
Groucho Marx

32.
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

33.
Learning to dislike children at an early age saves a lot of expense and aggravation later in life.
Robert Byrne

34.
Outings are so much more fun when we can savor them through the children's eyes.
Lawana Blackwell

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

37.
He continued to be an infant long after he ceased to be a prodigy.
Moses, Robert

38.
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

39.
If men do not keep on speaking terms with children, they cease to be men, and become merely machines for eating and for earning money.
Updike, John

40.
Children are the keys of paradise.
Stoddard, Richard Henry

41.
Children are poor men's riches.
Ray, John

42.
Children always turn to the light.
Hare, David

43.
How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless child.
Shakespeare, William

44.
Families with babies and families without babies are sorry for each other.
Howe, Edgar Watson

45.
There is a sanctity involved with bringing a child into this world: it is better than bombing one out of it.
Baldwin, James

46.
Never have children, only grand children.
Vidal, Gore

47.
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

48.
Children are apt to live up to what you believe of them.
Johnson, Lady Bird

49.
Pretty much all the honest truth telling there is in the world is done by children.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

50.
Children in a family are like flowers in a bouquet: there's always one determined to face in an opposite direction from the way the arranger desires.
Cox, Marcelene
