Motivational Quotes
Children
If you have a great passion it seems that the logical thing is to see the fruit of it, and the fruit are children.

Best Quotes about Children
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
Kids use to ask where they came from, now they tell you where to go
You know that children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers.
John J. Plomp
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
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
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
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
Never have children, only grand children.
Vidal, Gore
Children are the keys of paradise.
Stoddard, Richard Henry
How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless child.
Shakespeare, William
Level with your child by being honest. Nobody spots a phony quicker than a child.
Mary MacCracken
Don't throw away your friendship with your teenager over behavior that has no great moral significance. There will be plenty of real issues that require you to stand like a rock. Save your big guns for those crucial confrontations.
Dobson, Dr. James C.
Children are the only form of immortality that we can be sure of.
Peter Ustinov
Every child is an artist. The problem is to remain an artist once they grow up.
Picasso, Pablo
For many children, joy comes as the result of mining something unique and wondrous about themselves from some inner shaft.
Cottle, Thomas J.
Children are all foreigners.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
What's more enchanting than the voices of young people, when you can't hear what they say?
Smith, Logan Pearsall
If you can give your son or daughter only one gift, let it be enthusiasm.
Bruce Barton
Children begin by loving their parents; as they grow older they judge them; sometimes they forgive them.
Oscar Wilde
It's fun being a kid.
Angier, Bradford Arthur
Childhood sometimes does pay a second visit to man; youth never.
Jameson, Anna
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
But the child's sob curses deeper in the silence than the strong man in his wrath!
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett
I take my children everywhere, but they always find their way back home.
Robert Orben
Youth isn't always all it's touted to be.
Lawana Blackwell
How little is the promise of the child fulfilled in the man.
Ovid
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
When you put faith, hope and love together, you can raise positive kids in a negative world.
Ziglar, Zig
We inevitably doom our children to failure and frustration when we try to set their goals for them.
Lair, Dr. Jess
What is a neglected child? He is a child not planned for, not wanted. Neglect begins, therefore, before he is born.
Buck, Pearl S.
A child is a beam of sunlight from the Infinite and Eternal, with possibilities of virtue and vice- but as yet unstained.
Abbott, Lyman
The test of the morality of a society is what it does for its children.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer
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
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
Adults are obsolete children.
Seuss, Dr.
It is dangerous to confuse children with angels.
Fyfe, David
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
Too many parents are not on spanking terms with their children.
A child learns to discard his ideals, whereas a grown-up never wears out his short pants.
Kraus, Karl
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
There is no sinner like a young saint.
Behn, Aphra
Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him. [Proverbs 22:15]
Bible
Your children will see what you're all about by what you live rather than what you say.
Dyer, Wayne
Of all the needs (there are none imaginary) a lonely child has, the one that must be satisfied, if there is going to be hope and a hope of wholeness, is the unshaken need for an unshakable God.
Angelou, Maya
Viewing the child solely as an immature person is a way of escaping comforting him.
Moustakas, Clark
Children are poor men's riches.
Ray, John
The planting of trees in the least self-centered of all that we can do. It is a purer act of faith than the procreation of children.
Wilder, Thornton
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
It is not giving children more that spoils them; it is giving them more to avoid confrontation.
John Gray
We've had bad luck with our kids -- they've all grown up.
Morley, Christopher
