Children Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Children

1.
There are three ways to get something done: do it yourself, employ someone, or forbid your children to do it.
Crane, Monta

2.
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

3.
The best way to make children good is to make them happy.
Wilde, Oscar

4.
Children have never been very good at listening to their elders, but they have never failed to imitate them.
Baldwin, James

5.
Children and drunks always speak the truth.
Proverb

6.
Young people should be helped, sheltered, ignored, and clubbed of necessary.
Capp, Al

7.
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

8.
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

9.
We in the West do not refrain from childbirth because we are concerned about the population explosion or because we feel we cannot afford children, but because we do not like children.
Greer, Germaine

10.
A child miseducated is a child lost.
Kennedy, John F.

11.
Our children change us... whether they live or not.
Lois McMaster Bujold

12.
It's fun being a kid.
Angier, Bradford Arthur

13.
I have been assured by a very knowing American of my acquaintance in London, that a young healthy child, well nursed, is at a year old, a most delicious, nourishing, and wholesome food, whether stewed, roasted, baked, or boiled; and I make no doubt that it will equally serve in a fricassee, or a ragout.
Swift, Jonathan

14.
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

15.
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

16.
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

17.
Once you bring life into the world, you must protect it. We must protect it by changing the world.
Wiesel, Elie

18.
Never raise your hand to your children; it leaves your midsection unprotected.
Robert Orben

19.
You can learn many things from children. How much patience you have, for instance.
Jones, Franklin P.

20.
We must teach our children to dream with their eyes open.
Edwards, Harry

21.
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.

22.
Anyone who uses the phrase'easy as taking candy from a baby'has never tried taking candy from a baby.

23.
When children are doing nothing, they are doing mischief.
Fielding, Henry

24.
Children are curious and are risk takers. They have lots of courage. They venture out into a world that is immense and dangerous. A child initially trusts life and the processes of life.
Bradshaw, John

25.
As much as I converse with sages and heroes, they have very little of my love and admiration. I long for rural and domestic scene, for the warbling of birds and the prattling of my children
Adams, John

26.
A rich child often sits in a poor mothers lap.
Proverb

27.
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

28.
You know children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers.
Plomp, John

29.
Adults find pleasure in deceiving a child. They consider it necessary, but they also enjoy it. The children very quickly figure it out and then practice deception themselves.
Canetti, Elias

30.
It is not a bad thing that children should occasionally, and politely, put parents in their place.
Colette, Sidonie Gabrielle

31.
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

32.
Always be nice to your children because they are the ones who will choose your rest home.
Phyllis Diller

33.
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

34.
In great countries, children are always trying to remain children, and the parents want to make them into adults. In vile countries, the children are always wanting to be adults and the parents want to keep them children.
Ruskin, John

35.
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

36.
For success in training children the first condition is to become as a child oneself, but this means no assumed childishness, no condescending baby-talk that the child immediately sees through and deeply abhors. What it does mean is to be as entirely and simply taken up with the child as the child himself is absorbed by his life.
Key, Ellen

37.
There never was a child so lovely, but his mother was glad to get him asleep.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

38.
How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is To have a thankless child!
William Shakespeare

39.
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

40.
How sharper than a serpent's tooth it is to have a thankless child.
Shakespeare, William

41.
Children need love, especially when they don't deserve it.
Hulbert, Harold

42.
Children are a great comfort to us in our old age, and they help us reach it faster too.

43.
Children are all foreigners.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

44.
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

45.
Don't limit a child to your own learning, for he was born in another time.
Rabbinical Saying

46.
Never have children, only grandchildren.
Gore Vidal

47.
Don't throw away your friendship with your teenager over behavior that has no great moral significance. There will be plenty of real issues that require you to stand like a rock. Save your big guns for those crucial confrontations.
Dobson, Dr. James C.

48.
We inevitably doom our children to failure and frustration when we try to set their goals for them.
Lair, Dr. Jess

49.
But the child's sob curses deeper in the silence than the strong man in his wrath!
Browning, Elizabeth Barrett

50.
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
