Raising

Famous quotes containing the word raising:

    The care of a house, the conduct of a home, the management of children, the instruction and government of servants, are as deserving of scientific treatment and scientific professors and lectureships as are the care of farms, the management of manure and crops, and the raising and care of stock.
    Catherine E. Beecher (1800–1878)

    In spite of the six thousand manuals on child raising in the bookstores, child raising is still a dark continent and no one really knows anything. You just need a lot of love and luck—and, of course, courage.
    Bill Cosby (20th century)

    Too often I hear people say, “Well, at least so-and-so is a good person.” When did being a good person become the least thing we can say about another? And are we raising children who will someday find that this is the least thing they can say about themselves?
    Neil Kurshan (20th century)
