More quotes by James Dobson
Behavior runs in deep channels that were cut during early childhood, and it is very difficult to alter them. In order to change a deeply ingrained pattern, you have to build a sturdy dam, dig another canal and reroute the river in the new direction. That effort is rarely successful over the long haul.
James Dobson
I don't blame homosexuals for being angry when people say they've made a choice to be gay because they don't.
James Dobson
When these parenting years have passed, something precious will have flickered and gone out of my life. Thus, I am resolved to enjoy every day that remains in this fathering era.
James Dobson
We are so busy giving our children what we never had that we forget to give them what we did have.
James Dobson
Prayer and dependence on God has been our history. How unfortunate it is now that an unaccountable and unelected and misguided judge from Wisconsin, Judge Barbara Crabb, has declared National Days of Prayer - established by the Congress - to be unconstitutional.
James Dobson
The United States has been from the beginning greatly influenced and primarily influenced by the Judeo-Christian system of values.
James Dobson
We Americans are living a lifestyle of exhaustion. We don't have time for ourselves, much less for each other and our children.
James Dobson
Can't you see the Creator of the universe, who understands every secret, every mystery, sitting patiently and listening to a four-year-old talk to Him? That's a beautiful image of a father.
James Dobson
The Lord doesn't always remove the sources of stress in our lives...but He's always there and cares for us. We can feel His arms around us on the darkest night.
James Dobson
There is nothing more important than parents passing on a generational legacy of faith and values to their children.
James Dobson
Tell me why it is that a toddler will gag over a perfectly wonderful breakfast of ham, eggs, biscuits, juice, and jelly. But then he will enthusiastically drink the dog's water and play in the toilet. Truly, he is his mother's greatest challenge... and her most inexpressible joy.
James Dobson
If traditional marriage is not the law of the land, the institution of the family will cease to exist.
James Dobson
There are very few certainties that touch us all in this mortal experience, but one of the absolutes is that we will experience hardship and stress at some point.
James Dobson
Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, and halfway closed there after.
James Dobson
Barring a miracle, the family that has existed since antiquity will likely crumble, presaging the fall of Western civilization itself. This is a time for concerted prayer, divine wisdom and greater courage than we have ever been called upon to exercise.
James Dobson
Marriage succeeds only as lifetime commitment with no escape clauses.
James Dobson
Clearly, unless the Lord chooses to explain Himself to us, which often He does not, His motivation and purposes are beyond the reach of mortal man. What this means in practical terms is that many of our questions - especially those that begin with the word 'why' - will have to remain unanswered for the time being.
James Dobson
When you let people put you up on a pedestal, you step one step in any direction, and you're going to go down.
James Dobson
I'm certain that most couples expect to find intimacy in marriage, but it somehow eludes them.
James Dobson
Conceit is a weird disease - it makes everybody sick except the guy who has it.
James Dobson
