Famous quotes containing the words children, peace and/or monument:

    “Conditional love is love that is turned off and on....Some parents only show their love after a child has done something that pleases them. “I love you, honey, for cleaning your room!” Children who think they need to earn love become people pleasers, or perfectionists. Those who are raised on conditional love never really feel loved.”
    —Louise Hart (20th century)

    “Accordingly, death is a harbor of peace for the just, but is believed a shipwreck for the wicked.”
    —Ambrose (c. 333–397)

    “Thou art a monument without a tomb,
    And art alive still while thy book doth live
    And we have wits to read and praise to give.”
    —Ben Jonson (1572–1637)
