Children Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Children

1.
Young people should be helped, sheltered, ignored, and clubbed of necessary.
Capp, Al

2.
Every child is an artist. The problem is to remain an artist once they grow up.
Picasso, Pablo

3.
Learning to dislike children at an early age saves a lot of expense and aggravation later in life.
Robert Byrne

4.
My mother loved children -- she would have given anything if I had been one.
Groucho Marx

5.
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

6.
What the vast majority of American children needs is to stop being pampered, stop being indulged, stop being chauffeured, stop being catered to. In the final analysis it is not what you do for your children but what you have taught them to do for themselves that will make them successful human beings.
Landers, Ann

7.
It's fun being a kid.
Angier, Bradford Arthur

8.
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

9.
Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him. [Proverbs 22:15]
Bible

10.
A child is fed with milk and praise.
Lamb, Mary

11.
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

12.
It is not giving children more that spoils them; it is giving them more to avoid confrontation.
John Gray

13.
If help and salvation are to come, they can only come from the children, for the children are the makers of men.
Montessori, Maria

14.
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

15.
The test of the morality of a society is what it does for its children.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer

16.
The best way to make children good is to make them happy.
Wilde, Oscar

17.
Don't limit a child to your own learning, for he was born in another time.
Rabbinical Saying

18.
Kids use to ask where they came from, now they tell you where to go

19.
What you don't know takes a lot of explaining to the children.

20.
It is not a bad thing that children should occasionally, and politely, put parents in their place.
Colette, Sidonie Gabrielle

21.
Childhood sometimes does pay a second visit to man; youth never.
Jameson, Anna

22.
It were better for him that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should offend one of these little ones. [Luke 17:2]
Bible

23.
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

24.
What is done to children, they will do to society.
Menninger, Karl A.

25.
Children enjoy the present because they have neither a past nor a future.
La Bruyere, Jean De

26.
A child of five would understand this. Send someone to fetch a child of five.
Groucho Marx

27.
The child with his sweet pranks, the fool of his senses, commanded by every sight and sound, without any power to compare and rank his sensations, abandoned to a whistle or a painted chip, to a lead dragoon, or a gingerbread dog, individualizing everything, generalizing nothing, delighted with every new thing, lies down at night overpowered by the fatigue, which this day of continual pretty madness has incurred. But Nature has answered her purpose with the curly, dimpled lunatic. She has tasked every faculty, and has secured the symmetrical growth of the bodily frame, by all these attitudes and exertions --an end of the first importance, which could not be trusted to any care less perfect than her own.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

28.
Your children need your presence more than your presents.
Jackson, Jesse

29.
Always be nice to your children because they are the ones who will choose your rest home.
Phyllis Diller

30.
There are few places outside his own play where a child can contribute to the world in which he finds himself. His world: dominated by adults who tell him what to do and when to do it --benevolent tyrants who dispense gifts to their good subjects and punishment to their bad ones, who are amused at the cleverness of children and annoyed by their stupidities.
Spolin, Viola

31.
Children begin by loving their parents; as they grow older they judge them; sometimes they forgive them.
Oscar Wilde

32.
The countenances of children, like those of animals, are masks, not faces, for they have not yet developed a significant profile of their own.
Auden, W. H.

33.
The distinctive character of a child is to always live in the tangible present.
Ruskin, John

34.
Never have children, only grandchildren.
Gore Vidal

35.
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

36.
Children's talent to endure stems from their ignorance of alternatives.
Angelou, Maya

37.
Your children will see what you're all about by what you live rather than what you say.
Dyer, Wayne

38.
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

39.
We inevitably doom our children to failure and frustration when we try to set their goals for them.
Lair, Dr. Jess

40.
All my life through, the new sights of Nature made me rejoice like a child.
Curie, Madame Marie

41.
Youth isn't always all it's touted to be.
Lawana Blackwell

42.
Those who have lost an infant are never, in a way, without an infant.
Hunt, Leigh

43.
She discovered with great delight that one does not love one's children just because they are one's children but because of the friendship formed while raising them.
Marquez, Gabriel Garcia

44.
We in the West do not refrain from childbirth because we are concerned about the population explosion or because we feel we cannot afford children, but because we do not like children.
Greer, Germaine

45.
The best way for a man to train up a child in the way he should go is to travel that way himself.

46.
A child is not a salmon mousse. A child is a temporarily disabled and stunted version of a larger person, whom you will someday know. Your job is to help them overcome the disabilities associated with their size and inexperience so that they get on with being that larger person.
Ehrenreich, Barbara

47.
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

48.
A rich child often sits in a poor mothers lap.
Proverb

49.
Children are unpredictable. You never know what inconsistency they're going to catch you in next.
Jones, Franklin P.

50.
If you want to see what children can do, you must stop giving them things.
Norman Douglas
