Best Quotes about Children

You see much more of your children once they leave home.
Ball, Lucille

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

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

4.
Be gentle with the young.
Juvenal

5.
Listen to the desires of your children. Encourage them and then give them the autonomy to make their own decision.
Waitley, Denis

6.
Children enjoy the present because they have neither a past nor a future.
La Bruyere, Jean De

7.
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

8.
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

9.
Children begin by loving their parents; as they grow older they judge them; sometimes they forgive them.
Oscar Wilde

10.
Instead of needing lots of children, we need high-quality children.
Mead, Margaret

11.
With children... it is a fact that most parents criticize children more than they laud or congratulate them. We tend to be quick to criticize, slow to praise. We should be careful to keep the praise and the expectations far ahead of the criticism.

12.
What is a neglected child? He is a child not planned for, not wanted. Neglect begins, therefore, before he is born.
Buck, Pearl S.

13.
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

14.
Childhood is the sleep of reason.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques

15.
The best way for a man to train up a child in the way he should go is to travel that way himself.

16.
Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him. [Proverbs 22:15]
Bible

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

18.
We must teach our children to dream with their eyes open.
Edwards, Harry

19.
Young people should be helped, sheltered, ignored, and clubbed of necessary.
Capp, Al

20.
Youth isn't always all it's touted to be.
Lawana Blackwell

21.
Never have children, only grandchildren.
Gore Vidal

22.
Your children will see what you're all about by what you live rather than what you say.
Dyer, Wayne

23.
Children are the only form of immortality that we can be sure of.
Peter Ustinov

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

25.
There are few successful adults who were not first successful children.
Chase, Alexander

26.
Adults find pleasure in deceiving a child. They consider it necessary, but they also enjoy it. The children very quickly figure it out and then practice deception themselves.
Canetti, Elias

27.
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

28.
Children suck the mother when they are young and the father when they are old.
Proverb, English

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

30.
You know children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers.

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

The best way to keep children home is to make the home atmosphere pleasant--and let the air out of the tires.
Dorothy Parker

33.
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

34.
A child miseducated is a child lost.
Kennedy, John F.

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

36.
How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless child.
Shakespeare, William

37.
A child is not a salmon mousse. A child is a temporarily disabled and stunted version of a larger person, whom you will someday know. Your job is to help them overcome the disabilities associated with their size and inexperience so that they get on with being that larger person.
Ehrenreich, Barbara

38.
Level with your child by being honest. Nobody spots a phony quicker than a child.
Mary MacCracken

39.
We've had bad luck with our kids -- they've all grown up.
Morley, Christopher

40.
A child is fed with milk and praise.
Lamb, Mary

41.
A society in which adults are estranged from the world of children, and often from their own childhood, tends to hear children's speech only as a foreign language, or as a lie. Children have been treated. as congenital fibbers, fakers and fantasisers.
Campbell, Beatrix

42.
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.

Lois McMaster Bujold

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

45.
Children are apt to live up to what you believe of them.
Johnson, Lady Bird

46.
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

47.
I am amused when goody-goodies proclaim, from the safety of their armchairs, that children are naturally prejudice-free, that they only learn to "hate" from listening to bigoted adults. Nonsense. Tolerance is a learned trait, like riding a bike or playing the piano. Those of us who actually live among children, who see them in their natural environment, know the truth: Left to their own devices, children will gang up on and abuse anyone who is even slightly different from the norm.
Josh Lieb

48.
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

49.
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

50.
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
