Famous quotes containing the words julia and/or child:

    Whenas in silks my Julia goes,
    Then, then, methinks, how sweeetly flows
    That liquefaction of her clothes.
    Robert Herrick (1591–1674)

    Preschool children are more sophisticated than toddlers.... Your goal as a parent is to nurture the child’s desire to be a self-starter and help him begin to adopt some of your attitudes and values, but without humiliating the child or suppressing his newfound assertiveness
    Lawrence Balter (20th century)
