Children

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
Children Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Children

1.
Little girl's definition of conscience: Something that makes you tell your mother before your brother or sister does.

2.
But the child's sob curses deeper in the silence than the strong man in his wrath!
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

3.
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

4.
Never raise your hand to your children; it leaves your midsection unprotected.
Robert Orben

5.
Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him. [Proverbs 22:15]
Bible

6.
Every child is an artist. The problem is to remain an artist once they grow up.
Picasso, Pablo

7.
You know that children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers.
John J. Plomp

8.
There never was a child so lovely, but his mother was glad to get him asleep.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

9.
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

10.
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

11.
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

12.
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

13.
How little is the promise of the child fulfilled in the man.
Ovid

14.
A child of five would understand this. Send someone to fetch a child of five.
Groucho Marx

15.
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

16.
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

17.
Children are curious and are risk takers. They have lots of courage. They venture out into a world that is immense and dangerous. A child initially trusts life and the processes of life.
Bradshaw, John

18.
The child is the father of the man.
Wordsworth, William

19.
You should study not only that you become a mother when your child is born, but also that you become a child.
Dogen

20.
If your parents never had children, chances are you won't, either.
Dick Cavett

21.
Before I got married, I had six theories about bringing up children. Now I have six children and no theories.
Wilmot, John

22.
Level with your child by being honest. Nobody spots a phony quicker than a child.
Mary MacCracken

23.
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

24.
Viewing the child solely as an immature person is a way of escaping comforting him.
Moustakas, Clark

25.
It's fun being a kid.
Angier, Bradford Arthur

26.
Children are given to us to discourage our better emotions.
Saki

27.
How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is To have a thankless child!
William Shakespeare

28.
It goes without saying that you should never have more children than you have car windows.
Bombeck, Erma

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

30.
We inevitably doom our children to failure and frustration when we try to set their goals for them.
Lair, Dr. Jess

31.
When you put faith, hope and love together, you can raise positive kids in a negative world.
Ziglar, Zig

32.
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

33.
It takes three to make a child.
Cummings, E.E. (Edward. E.)

34.
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

35.
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

36.
Your children need your presence more than your presents.
Jackson, Jesse

37.
There are three ways to get something done: do it yourself, employ someone, or forbid your children to do it.
Crane, Monta

38.
People who get nostalgic about childhood were obviously never children.
Bill Watterson

39.
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

40.
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

41.
What is a neglected child? He is a child not planned for, not wanted. Neglect begins, therefore, before he is born.
Buck, Pearl S.

42.
Childhood is the sleep of reason.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques

43.
Grown-ups never understand anything for themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.
Antoine de Saint-Exupery

44.
Children and drunks always speak the truth.
Proverb

45.
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

46.
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

47.
The best way to keep children home is to make the home atmosphere pleasant--and let the air out of the tires.
Dorothy Parker

48.
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

49.
All my life through, the new sights of Nature made me rejoice like a child.
Curie, Madame Marie

50.
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
