Having Children Quotes

What is our freedom fight about? Is it about the liberation of children or just having sex with them? Picture Quote #1

I'm sorry, it's true. Having children really changes your view on these things. We're born, we live for a brief instant, and we die. It's been happening for a long time. Technology is not changing it much - if at all Picture Quote #1

I've never regretted not having children. My mindset in that regard has been constant. I objected to being born, and I refuse to impose life on someone else Picture Quote #1

I would have liked having children to some degree, but frankly I haven’t got the time to take the kids to the goddamn ballgame Picture Quote #1

Having children made us look differently at all these things that we take for granted, like taking your child to get a vaccine against measles or polio Picture Quote #1

And part of that is, what is the point of having children if you don’t have the privilege of bringing them up? Picture Quote #1

In fact I have nightmares about having children. I want to carry a baby and feel the life within me and in my dream, I do. But every time after it’s born, there’s this incredible fear, this pounding pulse of fear. It’s a real bad nightmare Picture Quote #1

I don’t necessarily want kids. A lot of our friends are having children and I don’t know if it’s for me. I haven’t come down hardcore on either side of the argument. I think when people come from a stable family having children becomes a celebration and I’m not sure it would be that way for me Picture Quote #1

I’ve found it easier to write, to coalesce my thoughts, since having children. It brings you back to what you experienced yourself as a child, and you empathize with what your parents went through Picture Quote #1

And I think in your 40s, you land a little bit, physically and mentally, you arrive at a place where you feel you’ve learned some stuff. Having children at that point meant I had something very useful to do for the next 20 years Picture Quote #1

Our life is all about the choices we make, and when I was looking for a mate for life, I really was looking for someone who was a family man, somebody who would embrace my girls as much as they were going to embrace me. I guess I just wasn’t finished having children yet Picture Quote #1

I don’t mind being a grandfather; I’ve been a mother for so many years. You just can’t believe what it’s like being a father. Especially when you come out of the chaos of the road to getting married and having children Picture Quote #1

To suppose such a thing possible as a society, in which men, who are able and willing to work, cannot support their families, and ought, with a great part of the women, to be compelled to lead a life of celibacy, for fear of having children to be starved; to suppose such a thing possible is monstrous Picture Quote #1

My philosophy when it came to pets was much like that of having children: You got what you got, and you loved them unconditionally regardless of whatever their personalities or flaws turned out to be Picture Quote #1

I think I have become a better writer since having children. It improves creativity, particularly because once you have children it makes you realise the story isn’t about you Picture Quote #1

I’d say people recognize me but having children recognize me is the best. It is a very special thing. Suddenly you feel like you have the power to make the children’s dreams come true and it’s better than anything else Picture Quote #1

There is no experience like having children... If you want the experience of having complete responsibility for another human being, and to learn to love and bond in the deepest way, then you should have children Picture Quote #1

The biggest thing this has in common with almost all of our records is the dualities are still there. We kind of stripped down the other things we were writing about, and that’s what was left. A lot of good things have happened to us in the last couple of years both as a band and in our personal lives. But something as wonderful as having children also brings along these new fears and terrors and responsibilities Picture Quote #1

It’s not that I bounce ideas off of my children as much as it is that having children has had a profound effect on the way I see the world. They have mined my soul. They’ve made me a better person and therefore a more empathetic writer Picture Quote #1

After the oil spill, I had this strong feeling that if I ever were to be blessed in having children, I never wanted my kids to see me pumping gas at a gas station. I think it’s our responsibility to make the changes that we need to take regardless of convenience Picture Quote #1

Having children is a huge responsibility, and I just don’t want to hand them off to a nanny or my mom to take care of them Picture Quote #1

Restaurants are like having children: its fun to make them, maybe, but then you have them for good and bad. You are going to have to raise them and if something goes wrong when they are 30 years old, they will still be your little boy Picture Quote #1

The traditional rules for having children are long gone. Some days I feel like the harder choice is to not have a kid Picture Quote #1

I find that women want to tell me about their birthing experiences. In the most excruciating detail. Its not put me off having children, but I do feel like I know too much Picture Quote #1

Having children obviously changes your priorities, but when you start to see life through these innocent eyes and seeing everything for the first time, you appreciate the small things Picture Quote #1
