Children Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Children

1.
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

2.
As much as I converse with sages and heroes, they have very little of my love and admiration. I long for rural and domestic scene, for the warbling of birds and the prattling of my children
Adams, John

3.
Childhood sometimes does pay a second visit to man; youth never.
Jameson, Anna

4.
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

5.
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

6.
Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.
Lenin, Vladimir Ilyich

7.
Children might or might not be a blessing, but to create them and then fail them was surely damnation.
Lois McMaster Bujold

8.
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

9.
Before I got married, I had six theories about bringing up children. Now I have six children and no theories.
Wilmot, John

10.
There is a sanctity involved with bringing a child into this world: it is better than bombing one out of it.
Baldwin, James

11.
Do not handicap your children by making their lives easy.
Long, Lazarus

12.
Alas! regardless of their doom, the little victims play! No sense have they of ills to come nor care beyond today.
Gray, Thomas

13.
Children enjoy the present because they have neither a past nor a future.
La Bruyere, Jean De

14.
Better a snotty child than his nose wiped off.
Proverb, English

15.
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

16.
Children are the only form of immortality that we can be sure of.
Peter Ustinov

17.
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

18.
How little is the promise of the child fulfilled in the man.
Ovid

19.
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

20.
Don't limit a child to your own learning, for he was born in another time.
Rabbinical Saying

21.
When children are doing nothing, they are doing mischief.
Fielding, Henry

22.
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

23.
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

24.
But the child's sob curses deeper in the silence than the strong man in his wrath!
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

25.
The test of the morality of a society is what it does for its children.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer

26.
If your parents never had children, chances are you won't, either.
Dick Cavett

27.
All my life through, the new sights of Nature made me rejoice like a child.
Curie, Madame Marie

28.
Learning to dislike children at an early age saves a lot of expense and aggravation later in life.
Robert Byrne

29.
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

30.
Young people should be helped, sheltered, ignored, and clubbed of necessary.
Capp, Al

31.
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

32.
The thing that impresses me the most about America is the way parents obey their children.
King Edward VIII

33.
That's the funny thing about havin'a kid. They come with their own set of problems; make everything else you were worried about seem kinda silly.
Greg Garcia

34.
My mother loved children -- she would have given anything if I had been one.
Groucho Marx

35.
Children aren't happy with nothing to ignore, and that's what parents were created for.
Nash, Ogden

36.
There's no point in being grown up if you cant be childish sometimes.
Who, Dr.

37.
Children begin by loving their parents; as they grow older they judge them; sometimes they forgive them.
Oscar Wilde

38.
It's fun being a kid.
Angier, Bradford Arthur

39.
If you want to see what children can do, you must stop giving them things.
Norman Douglas

40.
Little girl's definition of conscience: Something that makes you tell your mother before your brother or sister does.

41.
The distinctive character of a child is to always live in the tangible present.
Ruskin, John

42.
Outings are so much more fun when we can savor them through the children's eyes.
Lawana Blackwell

43.
The potential possibilities of any child are the most intriguing and stimulating in all creation.
Wilbur, Ray L.

44.
What's more enchanting than the voices of young people, when you can't hear what they say?
Smith, Logan Pearsall

45.
Above all, though, children are linked to adults by the simple fact that they are in process of turning into them. For this they may be forgiven much. Children are bound to be inferior to adults, or there is no incentive to grow up.
Larkin, Philip

46.
A child miseducated is a child lost.
Kennedy, John F.

47.
What is a neglected child? He is a child not planned for, not wanted. Neglect begins, therefore, before he is born.
Buck, Pearl S.

48.
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

49.
Kids are wonderful, but I like mine barbecued.
Hope, Bob

50.
Children are not casual guests in our home. They have been loaned to us temporarily for the purpose of loving them and instilling a foundation of values on which their future lives will be built.
Dobson, Dr. James C.
