Famous quotes containing the word children:

    “Oh yes, children often commit murders. And quite clever ones, too. Some murderers, particularly the distinguished ones who are going to make great names for themselves, start amazingly early.... Like mathematicians and musicians. Poets develop later.”
    —John Lee Mahin (1902–1984)

    “In a house where there are small children the bathroom soon takes on the appearance of the Old Curiosity Shop.”
    —Robert Benchley (1889–1945)

    “Americans, indeed, often seem to be so overwhelmed by their children that they’ll do anything for them except stay married to the co-producer.”
    —Katharine Whitehorn (b. 1926)
