Famous quotes containing the word children:

    “Seeing their children touched and seared and wounded by race prejudice is one of the heaviest crosses which colored women have to bear.”
    —Mary Church Terrell (1863–1954)

    “If we desire a kinder nation, seeing it through the eyes of children is an eminently sensible endeavor: A city that is pro-child, for example, is also a more humane place for adults.”
    —Richard Louv (20th century)

    “The atmosphere parents wish to create when talking with children about birth and reproduction is warm, honest, and reassuring, one that tells children they are free to ask questions as often as they need to, and you will answer them as lovingly as you know how.”
    —Joanna Cole (20th century)
