Famous quotes containing the word children:
“It’s so easy during those first few months to think that the problems will never end. You feel as if your son will never sleep through the night, will always spit up food after eating, and will never learn to smile—even though you don’t know any adults or even older children who still act this way.”
—Lawrence Kutner (20th century)
“the children call, and I
Thy shepherd pipe, and sweet is every sound,
Sweeter thy voice, but every sound is sweet;
Myriads of rivulets hurrying through the lawn,
The moan of doves in immemorial elms,
And murmuring of innumerable bees.’”
—Alfred Tennyson (1809–1892)
“The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the revealed things belong to us and to our children forever, to observe all the words of this law.”
—Bible: Hebrew, Deuteronomy 29:29.
