Famous quotes containing the word children:

    “Certainly, young children can begin to practice making letters and numbers and solving problems, but this should be done without workbooks. Young children need to learn initiative, autonomy, industry, and competence before they learn that answers can be right or wrong.”
    —David Elkind (20th century)

    “If we have come to think that the nursery and the kitchen are the natural sphere of a woman, we have done so exactly as English children come to think that a cage is the natural sphere of a parrot: because they have never seen one anywhere else.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    “The Americans are the illegitimate children of the English.”
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
