Best Quotes about Children
You should study not only that you become a mother when your child is born, but also that you become a child.
Dogen
It is not a bad thing that children should occasionally, and politely, put parents in their place.
Colette, Sidonie Gabrielle
The best way to keep children at home is to make the home a pleasant atmosphere and let the air out of the tires.
Parker, Dorothy
It is not giving children more that spoils them; it is giving them more to avoid confrontation.
John Gray
Children also have artistic ability, and there is wisdom in there having it! The more helpless they are, the more instructive are the examples they furnish us; and they must be preserved free of corruption from an early age.
Klee, Paul
Once you bring life into the world, you must protect it. We must protect it by changing the world.
Wiesel, Elie
Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him. [Proverbs 22:15]
Bible
Learning to dislike children at an early age saves a lot of expense and aggravation later in life.
Robert Byrne
There is not so much comfort in having children as there is sorrow in parting with them.
Proverb
Hugs can do great amounts of good -- especially for children.
Diana, Princess of Wales
Never raise your hand to your children; it leaves your midsection unprotected.
Robert Orben
Children are the only form of immortality that we can be sure of.
Peter Ustinov
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
Never have children, only grandchildren.
Gore Vidal
Youth isn't always all it's touted to be.
Lawana Blackwell
We must teach our children to dream with their eyes open.
Edwards, Harry
Childhood sometimes does pay a second visit to man; youth never.
Jameson, Anna
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
The best way to keep children home is to make the home atmosphere pleasant--and let the air out of the tires.
Dorothy Parker
If help and salvation are to come, they can only come from the children, for the children are the makers of men.
Montessori, Maria
There are few successful adults who were not first successful children.
Chase, Alexander
He continued to be an infant long after he ceased to be a prodigy.
Moses, Robert
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
But the child's sob curses deeper in the silence than the strong man in his wrath!
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett
There's no point in being grown up if you cant be childish sometimes.
Who, Dr.
A child is beset with long traditions. And his infancy is so old, so old, that the mere adding of years in the life to follow will not seem to throw it further back -- it is already so far.
Meynell, Alice
Children begin by loving their parents; as they grow older they judge them; sometimes they forgive them.
Oscar Wilde
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 always turn to the light.
Hare, David
Ignorance... is a painless evil; so, I should think, is dirt, considering the merry faces that go along with it.
Eliot, George
Children are all foreigners.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
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
A child is a beam of sunlight from the Infinite and Eternal, with possibilities of virtue and vice- but as yet unstained.
Abbott, Lyman
There are three ways to get something done: do it yourself, employ someone, or forbid your children to do it.
Crane, Monta
Behold the child, by nature's kindly law, pleased with a rattle, tickled with a straw.
Pope, Alexander
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
Every child is an artist. The problem is to remain an artist once they grow up.
Picasso, Pablo
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 and drunks always speak the truth.
Proverb
Families with babies and families without babies are sorry for each other.
Howe, Edgar Watson
If we had paid no more attention to our plants than we have to our children, we would now be living in a jungle of weed.
Burbank, Luther
You may give them your love but not your thoughts. For they have their own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls, for their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams.
Gibran, Kahlil
Pretty much all the honest truth telling there is in the world is done by children.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell
Don't limit a child to your own learning, for he was born in another time.
Rabbinical Saying
Our children change us... whether they live or not.
Lois McMaster Bujold
Before I got married, I had six theories about bringing up children. Now I have six children and no theories.
Wilmot, John
All my life through, the new sights of Nature made me rejoice like a child.
Curie, Madame Marie
I would be the most content if my children grew up to be the kind of people who think decorating consists mostly of building enough bookshelves.
Anna Quindlen
Children are poor men's riches.
Ray, John
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
