Text Quotes
When I think back on all the refugee camps I visited, all over the world, the people always asked for the same thing: books. Sometimes even before medicine or shelter - they wanted books for their children. (quoting his mother) (Children Quotes)
Life depends on what she thinks of as ‘big bursts' and ‘little bursts. ' Big bursts are things like marriage or children, intimacies that keep you afloat, but these big bursts hold dangerous, unseen currents. Which is why you need the little bursts as well: a friendly clerk at Bradlee's, let's say, or the waitress at Dunkin' Donuts who knows how you like your coffee (Children Quotes)
God knows our despair. God wants His chosen people to live in peace. God loves life, cares less about death. We need to live. I want to live, I want my children to live. Everyone I know wants to live. You have to ask yourself what is more important to you, life is death. What is this world about - life or death? (Children Quotes)
The cafeteria in the Chicago's Children's Memorial Hospital basement was the saddest place in the world-and forever it shall be-with its grim neon lights and gray tabletops and the diffuse foreboding of those who stepped away from suffering children to have a grilled cheese sandwich (Children Quotes)
Women are an enslaved population - the crop we harvest is children, the fields we work are houses. Women are forced into committing sexual acts with men that violate integrity because the universal religion - contempt for women - has as its first commandment that women exist purely as sexual fodder for men (Children Quotes)
And there was, in those Ipswich years, for me at least, a raw educational component; though I used to score well in academic tests, I seemed to know very little of how the world worked and was truly grateful for instruction, whether it was how to stroke a backhand, mix a martini, use a wallpaper steamer, or do the Twist. My wife, too, seemed willing to learn. Old as we must have looked to our children, we were still taking lessons, in how to be grown-up (Children Quotes)
The fullness ends when we give nature her ransom, when we make children for her. Then she is through with us, and we become, first inside, and then outside, junk. Flower stalks (Children Quotes)
Children are not a zoo of entertainingly exotic creatures, but an array of mirrors in which the human predicament leaps out at us (Children Quotes)
One avoids Creolisms. Some families completely forbid Creole and mothers ridicule their children for speaking it (Children Quotes)
Being able to resolve conflicts peacefully is one of the greatest strengths we can give our children (Children Quotes)
Most of us, I believe, admire strength. It's something we tend to respect in others, desire for ourselves, and wish for our children. Sometimes, though, I wonder if we confuse strength with other words-like 'aggression' and even 'violence'. Real strength is neither male nor female; but it is, quite simply, one of the finest characteristics that a human being can possess (Children Quotes)
The very best reason parents are so special... Is because we are the holders of a priceless gift, a gift we received from countless generations we never knew, a gift that only we now possess and only we can give to our children. That unique gift, of course, is the gift of ourselves. Whatever we can do to give that gift, and to help others receive it, is worth the challenge of all our human endeavor (Children Quotes)
Then, just at the peak of complacency, when it was assumed that the climate of the world had changed forever, when the conductor of the philharmonic played Vivaldi's Four Seasons and left out an entire movement, and when to children of a young age stories of winter were told as if they were fairy tales, New York was hit by a cataclysmic freeze, and, once again, people huddled together to talk fearfully of the millennium (Children Quotes)
If men do not keep on speaking terms with children, they cease to be men, and become merely machines for eating and for earning money (Children Quotes)
The Founding Fathers in their wisdom decided that children were an unnatural strain on parents. So they provided jails called schools, equipped with tortures called an education (Children Quotes)
Sometimes people can hunger for more than bread. It is possible that our children, our husband, our wife, do not hunger for bread, do not need clothes, do not lack a house. But are we equally sure that none of them feels alone, abandoned, neglected, needing some affection? That, too, is poverty (Children Quotes)
But the sons of this world have not God; they have only each other, and they walk holding to each other and looking to one another for assurance like frightened children (Children Quotes)
Do we know our poor people? Do we know the poor in our house, in our family? Perhaps they are not hungry for a piece of bread. Perhaps our children, husband, wife, are not hungry, or naked, or dispossessed, but are you sure there is no one there who feels unwanted, deprived of affection? (Children Quotes)
When this happens we need to remember to treat ourselves kindly. This is the time to trust, not make judgments. Soon the children will go back to school. The company will leave. The work will get completed. The bills will be paid. The quiet moment will come. You’ll be able to catch your breath, and then you’ll notice that it doesn’t hurt anymore. Your creative energy and enthusiasm will return. Once again you’ll start to advance confidently in the direction of your dreams (Children Quotes)
Spread love everywhere you go: first of all in your own home. Give love to your children, to your wife or husband, to a next door neighbor... Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier. Be the living expression of God's kindness; kindness in your face, kindness in your eyes, kindness in your smile, kindness in your warm greeting (Children Quotes)
Too much of anything is a mistake, as the man said when his wife presented him with four new healthy children in one day. We should practice moderation in all matters (Children Quotes)
Children of the future age reading this indignant page, know that in a former time love! Sweet love! Was thought a crime (Children Quotes)
When the voices of children are heard on the green and laughing is heard on the hill, My heart is at rest within my breast and everything else is still (Children Quotes)
The parents have not only to train their children: it is of at least equal importance that they should train themselves (Children Quotes)
Toronto is already in the toils of Christmas, and from several windows the hollow Ho Ho! Of a mechanical Santa Claus may be heard. Children watch these creatures with hard, calculating eyes, wondering if the old man is really crazy, or only pretending to be, like Hamlet (Children Quotes)
Several children present me with scraps of paper for autographs: obviously don't know who I am and don't care. I sign Jackie Collins and they go away quite content (Children Quotes)
Children, don't speak so coarsely, said Mr. Webster, who had a vague notion that some supervision should be exercised over his daughters' speech, and that a line should be drawn, but never knew quite when to draw it. He had allowed his daughters to use his library without restraint, and nothing is more fatal to maidenly delicacy of speech than the run of a good library (Children Quotes)
What is the price of experience? Do men buy it for a song? Or wisdom for a dance in the street? No, it is bought with the price of all the man hath, his house, his wife, his children (Children Quotes)
Men fear Death, as children fear to go in the dark; and as that natural fear in children is increased with tales, so is the other (Children Quotes)
Parents who are afraid to put their foot down usually have children who step on their toes (Children Quotes)
