Children Born

Famous quotes containing the words children and/or born:

    “Answering questions can be a responsibility. Children think that their parents have all the answers. In the words of one child, children are “whyers” and parents “becausers.””

    “The boy stood on the burning deck,
    Whence all but he had fled;
    The flame that lit the battle’s wreck,
    Shone round him o’er the dead.

    Yet beautiful and bright he stood,
    As born to rule the storm;
    A creature of heroic blood,
    A proud though childlike form.”
    —Felicia Dorothea Hemans (1783–1835)
