Children Quotes (page 140)

Medicine, electronic communications, space travel, genetic manipulation . . . these are the miracles about which we now tell our children. These are the miracles we herald as proof that science will bring us the answers. The ancient stories of immaculate conceptions, burning bushes, and parting seas are no longer relevant. God has become obsolete. Science has won the battle. Dan Brown
All the children seem to be coming out quite intelligent, thank goodness. It would have been such a bore to be the mother of morons, and it’s an absolute toss-up, isn’t it? If one could only invent them, like characters in books, it would be much more satisfactory to a well-regulated mind. Dorothy L. Sayers

I love you, my brother, whoever you are - whether you worship in a church, kneel in your temple, or pray in your mosque.

Khalil Gibran
What people regard as vanity—leaving great works, having children, acting in such a way as to prevent one's name from being forgotten—I regard as the highest expression of human dignity. Paulo Coelho

I would give up the unessential; I would give my money, I would give my life for my children; but I wouldn't give myself. Kate Chopin
As children, we all live in a world of imagination, of fantasy, and for some of us that world of make-believe continues into adulthood. Jim Henson
Bill Cosby quote: "Human beings are the only creatures that allow their children..."
Human beings are the only creatures that allow their children to come back home. Bill Cosby
Farther the government must not go. It must not attempt any service of any kind for the people, from the mere mechanism of carrying their letters to that most arrogant and ill-conceived of universal schemes, the education of their children. Auberon Herbert
Shinichi Suzuki quote: "I cannot live without children."
I cannot live without children. Shinichi Suzuki
I am on a drug. It's called Charlie Sheen. It's not available. If you try it once, you will die. Your face will melt off and your children will weep over your exploded body. Charlie Sheen
Dictatorship, by whatever name, is founded on the doctrine that the individual amounts to nothing; that the State is the only one that counts; and that men and women and children were put on earth solely for the purpose of serving the state. Harry S. Truman
...because it is the privilige and the curse of midnight's children to be both masters and victims of their times, to forsake privacy and be sucked into the annihilating whirlpool of the multitudes, and to be unable to live or die in peace. Salman Rushdie
But the hearts of small children are delicate organs. A cruel beginning in this world can twist them into curious shapes. The heart of a hurt child can shrink so that forever afterward it is hard and pitted as the seed of a peach. Or again, the heart of such a child may fester and swell until it is a misery to carry within the body, easily chafed and hurt by the most ordinary things. Carson McCullers
