My Children

Famous quotes containing the word children:

    It’s frightening to think that you mark your children merely by being yourself.... It seems unfair. You can’t assume the responsibility for everything you do—or don’t do.
    Simone De Beauvoir (1908–1986)

    Spirit, that made those heroes dare
    To die, and leave their children free,
    Bid Time and Nature gently spare
    The shaft we raise to them and thee.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
