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)

    Friends serve central functions for children that parents do not, and they play a critical role in shaping children’s social skills and their sense of identity. . . . The difference between a child with close friendships and a child who wants to make friends but is unable to can be the difference between a child who is happy and a child who is distressed in one large area of life.
    Zick Rubin (20th century)
