Children

Famous quotes containing the word children:

    How vainly shall we endeavor to repress crime by our barbarous punishment of the poorer class of criminals so long as children are reared in the brutalizing influences of poverty, so long as the bite of want drives men to crime.
    Henry George (1839–1897)

    Men just don’t “get” that the reason to become involved is for ourselves. Doing more with our children won’t simply make women happier or keep them “off our backs,” but will create a deeper, more positive connection with the kids.
    Ron Taffel (20th century)

    Men, wives, and children stare, cry out, and run,
    As it were doomsday.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
