Text Quotes
I seriously think I could have sat in the middle of the kitchen floor rubbing two sticks together over a pile of dynamite blocks and gasoline cans, and my parents would be oblivious, as long as I was keeping myself occupied  (Parents Quotes) Fortunately for me, I ran across some girls I could get along with so I could enjoy high school life okay, but it must be awful for kids who don’t get along with anybody. We’re different from our parents, a completely different species from our teachers. And kids who are one grade apart you are in a different world altogether. In other words, we’re basically surrounded by enemies and have to make it on our own  (Parents Quotes) The job of every generation is to discover the flaws of the one that came before it. That’s part of growing up, figuring out all the ways your parents and their friends are broken  (Parents Quotes) It’s especially hard to admit that you made a mistake to your parents, because, of course, you know so much more than they do  (Parents Quotes) Like our parents always told us not to like firefighters warn against we’re playing games and making the rules up as we go we’re matching warmth to warmth starting fires burning wishes into our skin we’re hidden holding forbidden lights we’re children whose fathers have never taught never touch but we’re finding these new flames we smother at the sound of footsteps  (Parents Quotes) Many people spend their entire lifetimes wishing that other people would acknowledge them. They feel this especially about their parents, spouses, children, and friends  (Parents Quotes) It’s hard to imagine her ever having felt lost, but it’s impossible to know the people your parents were before they were your parents  (Parents Quotes) Caitlyn isn’t someone to get over. She’s someone to come to terms with, the way you have to come to terms with your parents, your siblings. You can’t deny they ever happened. You can’t deny you ever loved them, love them still, even if loving them causes you pain  (Parents Quotes) These were our bedtime stories. Tales that haunted our parents and made them laugh at the same time. We never understood them until we were fully grown and they became our sole inheritance  (Parents Quotes) There’s no winning arguments with your parents, so why get all pumped up over them? It is way better to dive down and get out of the way than it is to get clobbered by some parental tidal wave  (Parents Quotes) My parents used to say faith wasn’t something you could pretend about. It wasn’t real unless it looked like faith and acted like faith  (Parents Quotes) I always wanted to be a juvenile delinquent but my parents wouldn’t let me  (Parents Quotes) Everyone else we knew growing up is the same: image of their parents, no matter how loud they told themselves they’d be different  (Parents Quotes) The world can be a hard place sometimes... You have to have heart. You have to be strong. Parents want their children to grow up to be strong. Not just any strong, mind you, but loving strong  (Parents Quotes) I know this is insane, but I somehow wish I had been in auschwitz with my parents so I could really know what they lived through! I guess it’s some kind of guilt about having had an easier life than they did  (Parents Quotes) ... who proved that you don’t have to do what your parents want, or what your boyfriend wants, for you to be happy. You just have to be yourself, for there is no love greater than self love  (Parents Quotes) It is, I suppose, the common grief of children at having to protect their parents from reality. It is bitter for the young to see what awful innocence adults grow into, that terrible vulnerability that must be sheltered from the rodent mire of childhood  (Parents Quotes) When I was your age, art was a lonely thing: no galleries, no collecting, no critics, no money. We didn’t have mentors. We didn’t have parents. We were alone. But it was a great time, because we had nothing to lose and a vision to gain  (Parents Quotes) I do not know what happened with your parents or why they did what they did. But in all the world, I could have wished for no daughter but you  (Parents Quotes) The thinking man always finds himself in a gigantic orphanage in which people are continually proving to him that he has no parents  (Parents Quotes) Place the lives of children in their formative years, despite the convictions of their parents, under the intimate control of experts appointed by the state, force them to attend schools where the higher aspirations of humanity are crushed out, and where the mind is filled with the materialism of the day, and it is difficult to see how even the remnants of liberty can subsist  (Parents Quotes) The wide world was changing, and she wanted a different place in it. Not just wanted, but felt she deserved. If the world didn’t owe her a living, as her mother repeatedly warned her, it owed her a break. She had a strong sense that a better, more exciting, more rewarding life than that which had been the lot of her parents and grandparents was hers by right. In this she was guilty of nothing more serious than the arrogance of youth, from which every generation suffers and by which it distinguishes itself from the preceding one  (Parents Quotes) Parents always have their own ideas about how they wish their children to be brought up, both morally and spiritually. But they must understand that their children are not their property; that their children are entitled to pursue happiness in any way they wish  (Parents Quotes) It’s as if once you hit high school, you’re programmed, like a robot, to be an asshole to your parents  (Parents Quotes) I thought there were moments to complain about your parents and moments to be grateful, and it was a shame to mix those moments up  (Parents Quotes) If advertising has invaded the judgment of children, it has also forced its way into the family, an insolent usurper of parental function, degrading parents to mere intermediaries between their children and the market. This indeed is a social revoluation in our time!  (Parents Quotes) We all have families who are longing for peace in the world and an end to the suffering caused by poverty, disease, and hunger. Untold numbers of our friends, our neighbors, our parents, and our children, are hoping that there is more understanding, more generosity, more genuine friendship, and more caring among people of all faiths and cultures  (Parents Quotes) A love of reading is an acquired taste, not an instinctive preference. The habit of reading is formed in childhood; and a child’s taste in reading is formed in the right direction or in the wrong one while he is under the influence of his parents; and they are directly responsible for the shaping and cultivating of that taste  (Parents Quotes) We don’t yet know, above all, what the world might be like if children were to grow up without being subjected to humiliation, if parents would respect them and take them seriously as people  (Parents Quotes) It’s sad that children cannot know their parents when they were younger; when they were loving, courting, and being nice to one another. By the time children are old enough to observe, the romance has all too often faded or gone underground  (Parents Quotes)
