Best Quotes about Children
What is done to children, they will do to society.
Menninger, Karl A.
It goes without saying that you should never have more children than you have car windows.
Bombeck, Erma
Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him. [Proverbs 22:15]
Bible
A child is a beam of sunlight from the Infinite and Eternal, with possibilities of virtue and vice- but as yet unstained.
Abbott, Lyman
I take my children everywhere, but they always find their way back home.
Robert Orben
We do our children no favour by keeping them near, coddling them, or showing them off to adult visitors. Not that a nursemaid does not sometimes spoil them. But the greatest favour we can do our children is to give visible example of love and esteem to our spouse. As they grow up, they may then look forward to maturity so they too can find such love.
Eucharista Ward
Those who have lost an infant are never, in a way, without an infant.
Hunt, Leigh
Let the child's first lesson be obedience, and the second will be what thou wilt.
Franklin, Benjamin
Level with your child by being honest. Nobody spots a phony quicker than a child.
Mary MacCracken
Your children need your presence more than your presents.
Jackson, Jesse
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
Before I got married, I had six theories about bringing up children. Now I have six children and no theories.
Wilmot, John
You see much more of your children once they leave home.
Ball, Lucille
Your children will see what you're all about by what you live rather than what you say.
Dyer, Wayne
There is a sanctity involved with bringing a child into this world: it is better than bombing one out of it.
Baldwin, James
Children and drunks always speak the truth.
Proverb
One can love a child, perhaps, more deeply than one can love another adult, but it is rash to assume that the child feels any love in return.
Orwell, George
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
There is no sinner like a young saint.
Behn, Aphra
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
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.
There was a time when we expected nothing of our children but obedience, as opposed to the present, when we expect everything of them but obedience.
Anatole Broyard
It takes three to make a child.
Cummings, E.E. (Edward. E.)
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
Childhood is the sleep of reason.
Rousseau, Jean Jacques
Children are a great comfort to us in our old age, and they help us reach it faster too.
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 are excellent observers, and will often perceive your slightest defects. In general, those who govern children, forgive nothing in them, but everything in themselves.
FeNelon, Francois
Children begin by loving their parents; as they grow older they judge them; sometimes they forgive them.
Oscar Wilde
Childhood sometimes does pay a second visit to man; youth never.
Jameson, Anna
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
We cannot fashion our children after our desires, we must have them and love them as God has given them to us.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
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
Children need models rather than critics.
Joubert, Joseph
A child is fed with milk and praise.
Lamb, Mary
Never have children, only grandchildren.
Gore Vidal
She discovered with great delight that one does not love one's children just because they are one's children but because of the friendship formed while raising them.
Marquez, Gabriel Garcia
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
Children are all foreigners.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
There never was a child so lovely, but his mother was glad to get him asleep.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Children might or might not be a blessing, but to create them and then fail them was surely damnation.
Lois McMaster Bujold
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
All my life through, the new sights of Nature made me rejoice like a child.
Curie, Madame Marie
Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.
Lenin, Vladimir Ilyich
Children's talent to endure stems from their ignorance of alternatives.
Angelou, Maya
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
What is a neglected child? He is a child not planned for, not wanted. Neglect begins, therefore, before he is born.
Buck, Pearl S.
Never have children, only grand children.
Vidal, Gore
The potential possibilities of any child are the most intriguing and stimulating in all creation.
Wilbur, Ray L.
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
