Children are the hands by which we take hold of heaven

In every real man a child is hidden that wants to play

Children are made readers on the laps of their parents

Stories are like children. They grow in their own way.

Tradition in the nursery has acted as a severe editor.

It is indeed a mistake to confuse children with angels

Children must be taught how to think not what to think

I played with children so that I could learn from them.

Anybody who hates dogs and babies can't be all bad.

For parents, the days are long but the years are short.

You see much more of your children once they leave home

Mothers burning inside the risen suns of their children.

Children know something that most people have forgotten.

It takes courage and maturity to realise your own story.

The fundamental condition of childhood is powerlessness.
