Best Quotes about Children
A child is fed with milk and praise.
Lamb, Mary
Alas! regardless of their doom, the little victims play! No sense have they of ills to come nor care beyond today.
Gray, Thomas
Americans, indeed, often seem to be so overwhelmed by their children that they'll do anything for them except stay married to the co-producer.
Whitehorn, Katharine
There is a sanctity involved with bringing a child into this world: it is better than bombing one out of it.
Baldwin, James
Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.
Lenin, Vladimir Ilyich
The distinctive character of a child is to always live in the tangible present.
Ruskin, John
We must teach our children to dream with their eyes open.
Edwards, Harry
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
All my life through, the new sights of Nature made me rejoice like a child.
Curie, Madame Marie
Families with babies and families without babies are sorry for each other.
Howe, Edgar Watson

Diana, Princess of Wales
How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless child.
Shakespeare, William
A child is a beam of sunlight from the Infinite and Eternal, with possibilities of virtue and vice- but as yet unstained.
Abbott, Lyman
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
You should study not only that you become a mother when your child is born, but also that you become a child.
Dogen
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
It goes without saying that you should never have more children than you have car windows.
Bombeck, Erma
Wen I was a child, I spoke as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man I put away my childish things. [I Corinthians]
Bible
Behold the child, by nature's kindly law, pleased with a rattle, tickled with a straw.
Pope, Alexander
I take my children everywhere, but they always find their way back home.
Robert Orben
Where children are, there is the golden age.
Novalis
There are few successful adults who were not first successful children.
Chase, Alexander
It is not a bad thing that children should occasionally, and politely, put parents in their place.
Colette, Sidonie Gabrielle
Childhood is the sleep of reason.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques
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
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
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
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
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
If help and salvation are to come, they can only come from the children, for the children are the makers of men.
Montessori, Maria
The thing that impresses me the most about America is the way parents obey their children.
King Edward VIII
The best way to make children good is to make them happy.
Wilde, Oscar
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
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
Never raise your hand to your children; it leaves your midsection unprotected.
Robert Orben
Children need models rather than critics.
Joubert, Joseph
Once you bring life into the world, you must protect it. We must protect it by changing the world.
Wiesel, Elie
We've had bad luck with our kids -- they've all grown up.
Morley, Christopher
My mother loved children -- she would have given anything if I had been one.
Groucho Marx
Children's liberation is the next item on our civil rights shopping list.
Pogrebin, Letty Cottin
Children are living jewels dropped unsustained from heaven.
Pollok, Robert
Do not handicap your children by making their lives easy.
Long, Lazarus
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
There is not so much comfort in having children as there is sorrow in parting with them.
Proverb
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
