Children Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Children

1.
Where children are, there is the golden age.
Novalis

2.
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

3.
Children are poor men's riches.
Ray, John

4.
For many children, joy comes as the result of mining something unique and wondrous about themselves from some inner shaft.
Cottle, Thomas J.

5.
Never have children, only grandchildren.
Gore Vidal

6.
Too many parents are not on spanking terms with their children.

7.
When you put faith, hope and love together, you can raise positive kids in a negative world.
Ziglar, Zig

8.
I am amused when goody-goodies proclaim, from the safety of their armchairs, that children are naturally prejudice-free, that they only learn to "hate" from listening to bigoted adults. Nonsense. Tolerance is a learned trait, like riding a bike or playing the piano. Those of us who actually live among children, who see them in their natural environment, know the truth: Left to their own devices, children will gang up on and abuse anyone who is even slightly different from the norm.
Josh Lieb

9.
Don't limit a child to your own learning, for he was born in another time.
Rabbinical Saying

10.
Learning to dislike children at an early age saves a lot of expense and aggravation later in life.
Robert Byrne

11.
Kids use to ask where they came from, now they tell you where to go

12.
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

13.
A child of five would understand this. Send someone to fetch a child of five.
Groucho Marx

14.
Instead of needing lots of children, we need high-quality children.
Mead, Margaret

15.
The best way for a man to train up a child in the way he should go is to travel that way himself.

16.
Children's talent to endure stems from their ignorance of alternatives.
Angelou, Maya

17.
Childhood sometimes does pay a second visit to man; youth never.
Jameson, Anna

18.
A child is a beam of sunlight from the Infinite and Eternal, with possibilities of virtue and vice- but as yet unstained.
Abbott, Lyman

19.
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

20.
Children are unpredictable. You never know what inconsistency they're going to catch you in next.
Jones, Franklin P.

21.
Children are the only form of immortality that we can be sure of.
Peter Ustinov

22.
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

23.
Your children need your presence more than your presents.
Jackson, Jesse

24.
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

25.
We've had bad luck with our kids -- they've all grown up.
Morley, Christopher

26.
A happy childhood has spoiled many a promising life.
Robertson Davies

27.
Children suck the mother when they are young and the father when they are old.
Proverb, English

28.
Pretty much all the honest truth telling there is in the world is done by children.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

29.
It is not giving children more that spoils them; it is giving them more to avoid confrontation.
John Gray

30.
Above all, though, children are linked to adults by the simple fact that they are in process of turning into them. For this they may be forgiven much. Children are bound to be inferior to adults, or there is no incentive to grow up.
Larkin, Philip

31.
Who is not attracted by bright and pleasant children, to prattle, to creep, and to play with them?
Epictetus

32.
Children need love, especially when they don't deserve it.
Hulbert, Harold

33.
Alas! regardless of their doom, the little victims play! No sense have they of ills to come nor care beyond today.
Gray, Thomas

34.
You can learn many things from children. How much patience you have, for instance.
Jones, Franklin P.

35.
Once you bring life into the world, you must protect it. We must protect it by changing the world.
Wiesel, Elie

36.
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.
Vaughan, Bill

37.
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

38.
Ignorance... is a painless evil; so, I should think, is dirt, considering the merry faces that go along with it.
Eliot, George

39.
The child with his sweet pranks, the fool of his senses, commanded by every sight and sound, without any power to compare and rank his sensations, abandoned to a whistle or a painted chip, to a lead dragoon, or a gingerbread dog, individualizing everything, generalizing nothing, delighted with every new thing, lies down at night overpowered by the fatigue, which this day of continual pretty madness has incurred. But Nature has answered her purpose with the curly, dimpled lunatic. She has tasked every faculty, and has secured the symmetrical growth of the bodily frame, by all these attitudes and exertions --an end of the first importance, which could not be trusted to any care less perfect than her own.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

40.
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

41.
Better a snotty child than his nose wiped off.
Proverb, English

42.
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

43.
Ah! what would the world be to us If the children were no more? We should dread the desert behind us Worse than the dark before.
Longfellow, Henry Wadsworth

44.
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

45.
A child miseducated is a child lost.
Kennedy, John F.

46.
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

47.
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.

48.
We worry about what a child will be tomorrow, yet we forget that he is someone today.
Tauscher, Stacia

49.
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

50.
Anyone who uses the phrase'easy as taking candy from a baby'has never tried taking candy from a baby.
