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

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

3.
Children are living jewels dropped unsustained from heaven.
Pollok, Robert

4.
Who is not attracted by bright and pleasant children, to prattle, to creep, and to play with them?
Epictetus

5.
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

6.
Children have never been very good at listening to their elders, but they have never failed to imitate them.
Baldwin, James

7.
What is done to children, they will do to society.
Menninger, Karl A.

8.
Young people should be helped, sheltered, ignored, and clubbed of necessary.
Capp, Al

9.
Each child is an adventure into a better life --an opportunity to change the old pattern and make it new.
Humphrey, Hubert H.

10.
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

11.
What is a neglected child? He is a child not planned for, not wanted. Neglect begins, therefore, before he is born.
Buck, Pearl S.

12.
Children begin by loving their parents; as they grow older they judge them; sometimes they forgive them.
Oscar Wilde

13.
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

14.
For many children, joy comes as the result of mining something unique and wondrous about themselves from some inner shaft.
Cottle, Thomas J.

15.
Viewing the child solely as an immature person is a way of escaping comforting him.
Moustakas, Clark

16.
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

17.
Where children are, there is the golden age.
Novalis

18.
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

19.
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

20.
Every child is an artist. The problem is to remain an artist once they grow up.
Picasso, Pablo

21.
There are few successful adults who were not first successful children.
Chase, Alexander

22.
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

23.
Birds in their little nest agree; and 'Tis a shameful sight, when children of one family fall out, and chide, and fight.
Watts, Isaac

24.
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

25.
For unflagging interest and enjoyment, a household of children, if things go reasonably well, certainly all other forms of success and achievement lose their importance by comparison.
Roosevelt, Theodore

26.
Ah! what would the world be to us If the children were no more? We should dread the desert behind us Worse than the dark before.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth

27.
Children are unpredictable. You never know what inconsistency they're going to catch you in next.
Jones, Franklin P.

28.
He continued to be an infant long after he ceased to be a prodigy.
Moses, Robert

29.
Kids use to ask where they came from, now they tell you where to go

30.
The reason grandparents and grandchildren get along so well is that they have a common enemy.
Sam Levenson

31.
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

32.
Children enjoy the present because they have neither a past nor a future.
La Bruyere, Jean De

33.
Level with your child by being honest. Nobody spots a phony quicker than a child.
Mary MacCracken

34.
Wen I was a child, I spoke as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man I put away my childish things. [I Corinthians]
Bible

35.
Children need love, especially when they don't deserve it.
Hulbert, Harold

36.
Children and drunks always speak the truth.

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

41.
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

42.
Youth isn't always all it's touted to be.
Lawana Blackwell

43.
Children are our most valuable natural resource.

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

47.
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

48.
There are three ways to get something done: do it yourself, employ someone, or forbid your children to do it.
Crane, Monta

49.
Children are poor men's riches.
Ray, John

50.
Better a snotty child than his nose wiped off.
Proverb, English
