Children Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Children

1.
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

2.
Never have children, only grandchildren.
Gore Vidal

3.
The best way to keep children home is to make the home atmosphere pleasant--and let the air out of the tires.
Dorothy Parker

4.
Our children will not survive our habits of thinking, our failures of the spirit, our wreck of the universe into which we bring new life as blithely as we do. Mostly, our children will resemble our own misery and spite and anger, because we give them no choice about it. In the name of motherhood and fatherhood and education and good manners, we threaten and suffocate and bind and ensnare and bribe and trick children into wholesale emulation of our ways.
Jordan, June

5.
Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the rod of correction shall drive it far from him. [Proverbs 22:15]
Bible

6.
The potential possibilities of any child are the most intriguing and stimulating in all creation.
Wilbur, Ray L.

7.
If you have a great passion it seems that the logical thing is to see the fruit of it, and the fruit are children.
Polanski, Roman

8.
Every child is an artist. The problem is to remain an artist once they grow up.
Picasso, Pablo

9.
A child miseducated is a child lost.
Kennedy, John F.

10.
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

11.
When children are doing nothing, they are doing mischief.
Fielding, Henry

12.
Do not handicap your children by making their lives easy.
Long, Lazarus

13.
Outings are so much more fun when we can savor them through the children's eyes.
Lawana Blackwell

14.
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

15.
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

16.
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

17.
Pretty much all the honest truth telling there is in the world is done by children.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

18.
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

19.
People who get nostalgic about childhood were obviously never children.
Bill Watterson

20.
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

21.
Children need love, especially when they don't deserve it.
Hulbert, Harold

22.
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

23.
When you put faith, hope and love together, you can raise positive kids in a negative world.
Ziglar, Zig

24.
Listen to the desires of your children. Encourage them and then give them the autonomy to make their own decision.
Waitley, Denis

25.
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

26.
Children seldom have a proper sense of their own tragedy, discounting and keeping hidden the true horrors of their short lives, humbly imagining real calamity to be some prestigious drama of the grown-up world.
Hazzard, Shirley

27.
Children are our most valuable natural resource.
Hoover, Herbert Clark

28.
You should study not only that you become a mother when your child is born, but also that you become a child.
Dogen

29.
Behold the child, by nature's kindly law, pleased with a rattle, tickled with a straw.
Pope, Alexander

30.
The countenances of children, like those of animals, are masks, not faces, for they have not yet developed a significant profile of their own.
Auden, W. H.

31.
Our children change us... whether they live or not.
Lois McMaster Bujold

32.
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

33.
You see much more of your children once they leave home.
Ball, Lucille

34.
Children aren't happy with nothing to ignore, and that's what parents were created for.
Nash, Ogden

35.
Children always turn to the light.
Hare, David

36.
To rescue our children we will have to let them save us from the power we embody: we will have to trust the very difference that they forever personify. And we will have to allow them the choice, without fear of death: that they may come and do likewise or that they may come and that we will follow them, that a little child will lead us back to the child we will always be, vulnerable and wanting and hurting for love and for beauty.
Jordan, June

37.
Better a snotty child than his nose wiped off.
Proverb, English

Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.

How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is To have a thankless child!
William Shakespeare

40.
The thing that impresses me the most about America is the way parents obey their children.
King Edward VIII

41.
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.

In the final analysis it is not what you do for your children but what you have taught them to do for themselves that will make them successful human beings.
Landers, Ann

49.
Children see in their parents the past, their parents see in them the future; and if we find more love in the parents for their children than in children for their parents, this is sad but natural. Who does not entertain his hopes more than his recollections.
Ruskin, John

50.
Nothing you do for children is ever wasted. They seem not to notice us, hovering, averting our eyes, and they seldom offer thanks, but what we do for them is never wasted.
Keillor, Garrison
