Famous quotes containing the word children:
“We Americans are supposed to be overly concerned about the child. But actually the intelligent care of children in our society is balanced by a crass indifference to the helplessness of infancy and youth. Cruelty to children has become more widespread but less noticed in the general unrest, the constant migration, the family disintegration, and the other manifestations of a civilization that has been torn away from its original moorings.”
—Agnes E. Meyer (18871970)
“The place is very well & quiet & the children only scream in a low voice.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (17881824)
“Young women especially have something invested in being nice people, and its only when you have children that you realise youre not a nice person at all, but generally a selfish bully.”
—Fay Weldon (b. 1933)
