Famous quotes containing the word children:

    If you would shut your door against the children for an hour a day and say: “Mother is working on her five-act tragedy in blank verse!” you would be surprised how they would respect you. They would probably all become playwrights.
    Brenda Ueland (1891–1985)

    It is hard to find someone who will give your children a feeling of security while it lasts and not wound them too much when it is finished, who will treat those children as if they were her own, but knows—and never forgets—that they are yours.
    Anna Quindlen (20th century)

    It comes down to a doubt about the wisdom
    Of having children after having had them,
    So there is nothing we can do about it
    But warn the children they perhaps should have none.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
