Motivational Quotes
Children
The reason grandparents and grandchildren get along so well is that they have a common enemy.

Best Quotes about Children
Children's talent to endure stems from their ignorance of alternatives.
Angelou, Maya
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
It is amazing how quickly the kids learn to drive a car, yet are unable to understand the lawnmower, snow-blower, or vacuum cleaner.
Bergor, Ben
Too often when give children answers to remember rather than problems to solve.
Lewin, Roger
If you have a great passion it seems that the logical thing is to see the fruit of it, and the fruit are children.
Polanski, Roman
There's no point in being grown up if you cant be childish sometimes.
Who, Dr.
The distinctive character of a child is to always live in the tangible present.
Ruskin, John
Never have children, only grand children.
Vidal, Gore
You know that children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers.
John J. Plomp
Children have never been very good at listening to their elders, but they have never failed to imitate them.
Baldwin, James
There is a sanctity involved with bringing a child into this world: it is better than bombing one out of it.
Baldwin, James
The best way to keep children home is to make the home atmosphere pleasant--and let the air out of the tires.
Dorothy Parker
Even a minor event in the life of a child is an event of that child's world and thus a world event.
Bachelard, Gaston
I take my children everywhere, but they always find their way back home.
Robert Orben
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
Ask your child what he wants for dinner only if he's buying.
Fran Lebowitz
Every child is an artist. The problem is to remain an artist once they grow up.
Picasso, Pablo
We've had bad luck with our kids -- they've all grown up.
Morley, Christopher
Children need love, especially when they don't deserve it.
Hulbert, Harold
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
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
Where children are, there is the golden age.
Novalis
You see much more of your children once they leave home.
Ball, Lucille
Children are a great comfort to us in our old age, and they help us reach it faster too.
Children's liberation is the next item on our civil rights shopping list.
Pogrebin, Letty Cottin
If we had paid no more attention to our plants than we have to our children, we would now be living in a jungle of weed.
Burbank, Luther
Children aren't happy with nothing to ignore, and that's what parents were created for.
Nash, Ogden
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
It's fun being a kid.
Angier, Bradford Arthur
Children are completely egoistic; they feel their needs intensely and strive ruthlessly to satisfy them.
Freud, Sigmund
Families with babies and families without babies are sorry for each other.
Howe, Edgar Watson
We must teach our children to dream with their eyes open.
Edwards, Harry
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
In great countries, children are always trying to remain children, and the parents want to make them into adults. In vile countries, the children are always wanting to be adults and the parents want to keep them children.
Ruskin, John
D'you call life a bad job? Never! We've had our ups and downs, we've had our struggles, we've always been poor, but it's been worth it, ay, worth it a hundred times I say when I look round at my children.
W. Somerset Maugham
People who get nostalgic about childhood were obviously never children.
Bill Watterson
The best way to make children good is to make them happy.
Wilde, Oscar
Alas! regardless of their doom, the little victims play! No sense have they of ills to come nor care beyond today.
Gray, Thomas
Always be nice to your children because they are the ones who will choose your rest home.
Phyllis Diller
Children always turn to the light.
Hare, David
Little girl's definition of conscience: Something that makes you tell your mother before your brother or sister does.
A child miseducated is a child lost.
Kennedy, John F.
When you put faith, hope and love together, you can raise positive kids in a negative world.
Ziglar, Zig
Behold the child, by nature's kindly law, pleased with a rattle, tickled with a straw.
Pope, Alexander
Children are the keys of paradise.
Stoddard, Richard Henry
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
There is no sinner like a young saint.
Behn, Aphra
Better a snotty child than his nose wiped off.
Proverb, English
Children suck the mother when they are young and the father when they are old.

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