Motivational Quotes

Children

Discipline is a symbol of caring to a child. He needs guidance. If there is love, there is no such thing as being too tough with a child. A parent must also not be afraid to hang himself. If you have never been hated by your child, you have never been a parent.
- Davis, Bette
Children Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Children

1.
The child with his sweet pranks, the fool of his senses, commanded by every sight and sound, without any power to compare and rank his sensations, abandoned to a whistle or a painted chip, to a lead dragoon, or a gingerbread dog, individualizing everything, generalizing nothing, delighted with every new thing, lies down at night overpowered by the fatigue, which this day of continual pretty madness has incurred. But Nature has answered her purpose with the curly, dimpled lunatic. She has tasked every faculty, and has secured the symmetrical growth of the bodily frame, by all these attitudes and exertions --an end of the first importance, which could not be trusted to any care less perfect than her own.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

2.
The potential possibilities of any child are the most intriguing and stimulating in all creation.
Wilbur, Ray L.

3.
Each child is an adventure into a better life --an opportunity to change the old pattern and make it new.
Humphrey, Hubert H.

4.
Behold the child, by nature's kindly law, pleased with a rattle, tickled with a straw.
Pope, Alexander

5.
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

6.
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

7.
Never have children, only grandchildren.
Gore Vidal

8.
For many children, joy comes as the result of mining something unique and wondrous about themselves from some inner shaft.
Cottle, Thomas J.

9.
You know children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers.
Plomp, John

10.
Learning to dislike children at an early age saves a lot of expense and aggravation later in life.
Robert Byrne

11.
There's no point in being grown up if you cant be childish sometimes.
Who, Dr.

12.
The child is the father of the man.
Wordsworth, William

13.
Pretty much all the honest truth telling there is in the world is done by children.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

14.
Children's liberation is the next item on our civil rights shopping list.
Pogrebin, Letty Cottin

15.
If you can give your son or daughter only one gift, let it be enthusiasm.
Bruce Barton

16.
If you want to see what children can do, you must stop giving them things.
Norman Douglas

17.
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

18.
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

19.
Anyone who uses the phrase'easy as taking candy from a baby'has never tried taking candy from a baby.

20.
A child is fed with milk and praise.
Lamb, Mary

21.
Viewing the child solely as an immature person is a way of escaping comforting him.
Moustakas, Clark

22.
Strange new problems are being reported in the growing generations of children whose mothers were always there, driving them around, helping them with their homework --an inability to endure pain or discipline or pursue any self-sustained goal of any sort, a devastating boredom with life.
Friedan, Betty

23.
All my life through, the new sights of Nature made me rejoice like a child.
Curie, Madame Marie

24.
We worry about what a child will be tomorrow, yet we forget that he is someone today.
Tauscher, Stacia

25.
Families with babies and families without babies are sorry for each other.
Howe, Edgar Watson

26.
A child is a beam of sunlight from the Infinite and Eternal, with possibilities of virtue and vice- but as yet unstained.
Abbott, Lyman

27.
Alas! regardless of their doom, the little victims play! No sense have they of ills to come nor care beyond today.
Gray, Thomas

28.
How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is To have a thankless child!
William Shakespeare

29.
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

30.
How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless child.
Shakespeare, William

31.
In all our efforts to provide advantages we have actually produced the busiest, most competitive, highly pressured, and over-organized generation of youngsters in our history.
Shan, Eda J. Le

32.
Facing a mirror you see merely your own countenance; facing your child you finally understand how everyone else has seen you.
Daniel Raeburn

33.
If your parents never had children, chances are you won't, either.
Dick Cavett

34.
A three year old child is a being who gets almost as much fun out of a fifty-six dollar set of swings as it does out of finding a small green worm.
Vaughan, Bill

35.
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

36.
When you put faith, hope and love together, you can raise positive kids in a negative world.
Ziglar, Zig

37.
My children cause me the most exquisite suffering of which I have any experience. It is the suffering of ambivalence: the murderous alternation between bitter resentment and raw-edged nerves, and blissful gratification and tenderness. Sometimes I seem to myself, in my feelings toward these tiny guiltless beings, a monster of selfishness and intolerance.
Rich, Adrienne

38.
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

39.
What is done to children, they will do to society.
Menninger, Karl A.

40.
Kids are wonderful, but I like mine barbecued.
Hope, Bob

41.
Once you bring life into the world, you must protect it. We must protect it by changing the world.
Wiesel, Elie

42.
The wildest colts make the best horses.
Plutarch

43.
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

44.
Children are all foreigners.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

You can learn many things from children. How much patience you have, for instance.
Jones, Franklin P.

46.
Your children need your presence more than your presents.
Jackson, Jesse

47.
Level with your child by being honest. Nobody spots a phony quicker than a child.
Mary MacCracken

48.
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

49.
What's more enchanting than the voices of young people, when you can't hear what they say?
Smith, Logan Pearsall

50.
Our children change us... whether they live or not.
