Children Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Children

1.

Dobson, Dr. James C.

2.
Children suck the mother when they are young and the father when they are old.
Proverb, English

3.
It's fun being a kid.
Angier, Bradford Arthur

4.
Even though your kids will consistently do the exact opposite of what you're telling them to do, you have to keep loving them just as much.
Cosby, Bill

5.
The distinctive character of a child is to always live in the tangible present.
Ruskin, John

6.
A child is a beam of sunlight from the Infinite and Eternal, with possibilities of virtue and vice- but as yet unstained.
Abbott, Lyman

8.
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

9.
It goes without saying that you should never have more children than you have car windows.
Bombeck, Erma

10.
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

11.
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

12.
Too often when give children answers to remember rather than problems to solve.
Lewin, Roger

13.
People who get nostalgic about childhood were obviously never children.
Bill Watterson

14.
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

15.
The thing that impresses me the most about America is the way parents obey their children.
King Edward VIII

16.
The wildest colts make the best horses.
Plutarch

17.
Never have children, only grandchildren.
Gore Vidal

18.
But the child's sob curses deeper in the silence than the strong man in his wrath!
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

19.
It is dangerous to confuse children with angels.
Fyfe, David

20.
You see much more of your children once they leave home.
Ball, Lucille

21.
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

22.
Viewing the child solely as an immature person is a way of escaping comforting him.
Moustakas, Clark

23.
The potential possibilities of any child are the most intriguing and stimulating in all creation.
Wilbur, Ray L.

24.
Families with babies and families without babies are sorry for each other.
Howe, Edgar Watson

25.
Children always turn to the light.
Hare, David

26.
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

27.
Too many parents are not on spanking terms with their children.

28.
There are few places outside his own play where a child can contribute to the world in which he finds himself. His world: dominated by adults who tell him what to do and when to do it --benevolent tyrants who dispense gifts to their good subjects and punishment to their bad ones, who are amused at the cleverness of children and annoyed by their stupidities.
Spolin, Viola

29.
You know that children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers.
John J. Plomp

30.
Those who have lost an infant are never, in a way, without an infant.
Hunt, Leigh

31.
Listen to the desires of your children. Encourage them and then give them the autonomy to make their own decision.
Waitley, Denis

32.
Children are a great comfort to us in our old age, and they help us reach it faster too.

33.
Every child is an artist. The problem is to remain an artist once they grow up.
Picasso, Pablo

34.
Children are apt to live up to what you believe of them.
Johnson, Lady Bird

35.
Alas! regardless of their doom, the little victims play! No sense have they of ills to come nor care beyond today.
Gray, Thomas

36.
Ask your child what he wants for dinner only if he's buying.
Fran Lebowitz

37.

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

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.
