Famous quotes containing the word children:
“A life-long blessing for children is to fill them with warm memories of times together. Happy memories become treasures in the heart to pull out on the tough days of adulthood.”
—Charlotte Davis Kasl (20th century)
“In a house where there are small children the bathroom soon takes on the appearance of the Old Curiosity Shop.”
—Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
“The conviction that the best way to prepare children for a harsh, rapidly changing world is to introduce formal instruction at an early age is wrong. There is simply no evidence to support it, and considerable evidence against it. Starting children early academically has not worked in the past and is not working now.”
—David Elkind (20th century)
