Famous quotes containing the word children:
“I trust the time is coming, when the occupation of an instructer [sic] to children will be deemed the most honorable of human employment. If it is a drudgery to teach these little ones, then it is the duty of men to bear a part of that burthen; if it is a privilege and an honor, then we generously invite them to share that honor and privilege with us.”
—Angelina Grimké (1805–1879)
“He that loves not his wife and children feeds a lioness at home, and broods a nest of sorrows.”
—Jeremy Taylor (1613–1667)
“Once children grow up, they don’t listen to their mothers.”
—Chinese proverb.
