Children Exposed

Famous quotes containing the words children and/or exposed:

    My children cause me the most exquisite suffering of which I have any experience. It is the suffering of ambivalence: the murderous alternation between bitter resentment and raw-edged nerves, and blissful gratification and tenderness. Sometimes I seem to myself, in my feelings toward these tiny guiltless beings, a monster of selfishness and intolerance.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)

    The Sixties, of course, was the worst time in the world to try and bring up a child. They were exposed to all these crazy things going on.
    Nancy Reagan (b. 1923)
