Children

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
Children Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Children

1.
Your children need your presence more than your presents.
Jackson, Jesse

2.
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

3.
When I consider how little of a rarity children are -- that every street and blind alley swarms with them -- that the poorest people commonly have them in most abundance -- that there are few marriages that are not blest with at least one of these bargains -- how often they turn out ill, and defeat the fond hopes of their parents, taking to vicious courses, which end in poverty, disgrace, the gallows, etc. -- I cannot for my life tell what cause for pride there can possibly be in having them.
Lamb, Charles

4.
How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless child.
Shakespeare, William

5.
Your children will see what you're all about by what you live rather than what you say.
Dyer, Wayne

6.
A society in which adults are estranged from the world of children, and often from their own childhood, tends to hear children's speech only as a foreign language, or as a lie. Children have been treated. as congenital fibbers, fakers and fantasisers.
Campbell, Beatrix

7.
Don't limit a child to your own learning, for he was born in another time.
Rabbinical Saying

8.
Always be nice to your children because they are the ones who will choose your rest home.
Phyllis Diller

9.
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

10.
There is not so much comfort in having children as there is sorrow in parting with them.
Proverb

11.
There is no sinner like a young saint.
Behn, Aphra

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.
The best way to make children good is to make them happy.
Wilde, Oscar

14.
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

15.
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

16.
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

17.
Children have never been very good at listening to their elders, but they have never failed to imitate them.
Baldwin, James

18.
Before I got married, I had six theories about bringing up children. Now I have six children and no theories.
Wilmot, John

19.
Children are living jewels dropped unsustained from heaven.
Pollok, Robert

20.
For success in training children the first condition is to become as a child oneself, but this means no assumed childishness, no condescending baby-talk that the child immediately sees through and deeply abhors. What it does mean is to be as entirely and simply taken up with the child as the child himself is absorbed by his life.
Key, Ellen

21.
The best way to keep children home is to make the home atmosphere pleasant--and let the air out of the tires.
Dorothy Parker

22.
It is not giving children more that spoils them; it is giving them more to avoid confrontation.
John Gray

23.
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

24.
Ignorance... is a painless evil; so, I should think, is dirt, considering the merry faces that go along with it.
Eliot, George

25.
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

26.
What you don't know takes a lot of explaining to the children.

27.
You know children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers.
Plomp, John

28.
It is dangerous to confuse children with angels.
Fyfe, David

29.
Children enjoy the present because they have neither a past nor a future.
La Bruyere, Jean De

30.
You don't pay back your parents. You can't. The debt you owe them gets collected by your children, who hand it down in turn. It's a sort of entailment. Or if you don't have children of the body, it's left as a debt to your common humanity. Or to your God, if you possess or are possessed by one.
Lois McMaster Bujold

31.
The child is the father of the man.
Wordsworth, William

32.
Level with your child by being honest. Nobody spots a phony quicker than a child.
Mary MacCracken

33.
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

34.
Youth isn't always all it's touted to be.
Lawana Blackwell

35.
Children seldom have a proper sense of their own tragedy, discounting and keeping hidden the true horrors of their short lives, humbly imagining real calamity to be some prestigious drama of the grown-up world.
Hazzard, Shirley

36.
Be gentle with the young.
Juvenal

37.
Childhood is the sleep of reason.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques

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

39.
People who get nostalgic about childhood were obviously never children.
Bill Watterson

40.
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

41.
Never have children, only grandchildren.
Gore Vidal

42.
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

43.
Children's liberation is the next item on our civil rights shopping list.
Pogrebin, Letty Cottin

44.
Too many parents are not on spanking terms with their children.

45.
Families with babies and families without babies are sorry for each other.
Howe, Edgar Watson

46.
A child is fed with milk and praise.
Lamb, Mary

47.
If you can give your son or daughter only one gift, let it be enthusiasm.
Bruce Barton

48.
A little less worry over the child and a bit more concern about the world we make for the child to live in.
Meyer, Adolph

49.
Outings are so much more fun when we can savor them through the children's eyes.
Lawana Blackwell

50.
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
