Children Removed

Famous quotes containing the words children and/or removed:

    It’s frightening to think that you mark your children merely by being yourself.... It seems unfair. You can’t assume the responsibility for everything you do—or don’t do.
    Simone De Beauvoir (1908–1986)

    There are men from whom nature or some peculiar destiny has removed the cover beneath which we hide our own madness. They are like thin-skinned insects whose visible play of muscles seem to make them deformed, though in fact, everything soon turns to its normal shape again.
    —E.T.A.W. (Ernst Theodor Amadeus Wilhelm)
