Famous quotes containing the word children:

“Where children are, there is a golden age.”
—Novalis [Friedrich Von Hardenberg] (1772–1801)

“The mere existence of an additional child or children in the family could signify Less. Less time alone with parents. Less attention for hurts and disappointments. Less approval for accomplishments. . . . No wonder children struggle so fiercely to be first or best. No wonder they mobilize all their energy to have more or most. Or better still, all.”
—Adele Faber (20th century)

“If help and salvation are to come, they can only come from the children, for the children are the makers of men.”
—Maria Montessori (1870–1952)
