Famous quotes containing the word children:
“It takes a heap o’ children to make a home that’s true,
And home can be a palace grand, or just a plain, old shoe;
But if it has a mother dear, and a good old dad or two,
Why, that’s the sort of good old home for good old me and you.”
—Louis Untermeyer (1885–1977)
“All God’s children are not beautiful. Most of God’s children are, in fact, barely presentable.”
—Fran Lebowitz (20th century)
“There is no end to the violations committed by children on children, quietly talking alone.”
—Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
