Famous quotes containing the word children:

    “We Americans are supposed to be overly concerned about the child. But actually the intelligent care of children in our society is balanced by a crass indifference to the helplessness of infancy and youth. Cruelty to children has become more widespread but less noticed in the general unrest, the constant migration, the family disintegration, and the other manifestations of a civilization that has been torn away from its original moorings.”
    —Agnes E. Meyer (1887–1970)

    “Natives of poverty, children of malheur,
    The gaiety of language is our seigneur.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)

    “There is absolutely no evidence—developmental or otherwise—to support separating twins in school as a general policy. . . . The best policy seems to be no policy at all, which means that each year, you and your children need to decide what will work best for you.”
    —Pamela Patrick Novotny (20th century)
