Wounded Children

Famous quotes containing the words wounded and/or children:

    Nature herself her shape admires;
    The gods are wounded in her sight;
    And Love forsakes his heavenly fires
    And at her eyes his brand doth light:
    Heigh ho, would she were mine!
    Thomas Lodge (1558?–1625)

    She discovered with great delight that one does not love one’s children just because they are one’s children but because of the friendship formed while raising them.
