Famous quotes containing the word children:

    I can remember no time when I did not understand that my mother must write books because people would have and read them; but I cannot remember one hour in which her children needed her and did not find her.
    Elizabeth Stuart Phelps (1844–1911)

    You can make children believe whatever you want, and the children of today are the soldiers and mothers of tomorrow.
    Dudley Nichols, U.S. screenwriter. Jean Renoir. Major Von Keller (Walter Slezak)

    Maybe someday it will seem quaint that, during a time of plague, some of the parents of the 1990s wanted to deny their children protection so that they could safeguard their own self- image. Or maybe we’ll just seem like a bunch of lunatics.
    Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
