Famous quotes containing the word children:
“Children belong in families, which, ideally, serve as a sanctuary and a cushion from the world at large. Parents belong to society and are a part of that greater world. Sometimes parents are a channel to the larger society, sometimes they are a shield from it. Ideally they act as filters, guiding their children and teaching them to avoid the tempting trash.”
—Louise Hart (20th century)
“To make your children capable of honesty is the beginning of education.”
—John Ruskin (1819–1900)
““But, mother, I won’t be alone.
Other children will go with me,
And march the streets of Birmingham
To make our country free.””
—Dudley Randall (b. 1914)
