Famous quotes containing the words national and/or children:
“It is to be lamented that the principle of national has had very little nourishment in our country, and, instead, has given place to sectional or state partialities. What more promising method for remedying this defect than by uniting American women of every state and every section in a common effort for our whole country.”
—Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)
“Parents cannot expect advice to have the same force upon their children as experience has upon themselves.”
—Samuel Richardson (1689–1761)
