Chosen Children

Famous quotes containing the words chosen and/or children:

“But when you have chosen your part, abide by it, and do not weakly try to reconcile yourself with the world.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

“Some fear that if parents start listening to their own wants and needs they will neglect their children. It is our belief that children are in fact far less likely to be neglected when their parents’ needs—for support, for friendship, for decent work, for health care, for learning, for play, for time alone—are being met.”
—Wendy Coppedge Sanford. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, introduction (1978)
