Refugee Children

Famous quotes containing the words refugee and/or children:

    The refugee uncertain at the door
    You make at home; deftly you steady
    The drunk clambering on his undulant floor.
    John Frederick Nims (b. 1913)

    What will our children remember of us, ten, fifteen years from now? The mobile we bought or didn’t buy? Or the tone in our voices, the look in our eyes, the enthusiasm for life—and for them—that we felt? They, and we, will remember the spirit of things, not the letter. Those memories will go so deep that no one could measure it, capture it, bronze it, or put it in a scrapbook.
    Sonia Taitz (20th century)
