To have a good friend is the purest of all God's gifts, for it is a love that has no exchange of payment. It is not inherited, as with a family. It is not compelling, as with a child. And it has no means of physical pleasure, as with a mate. It is, therefore, an indescribable bond that brings with it a far deeper devotion than all the others.
Frances Farmer
Image
The parent knows that the child cannot be artificially motivated to learn they know that he is already motivated by the strongest driving force on earth: his inner intent.
Joseph Chilton Pearce
Image
I am often asked which picture is my favorite. This is like asking a mother which child she likes the most.
Philippe Halsman

I am a child of America. If ever I'm sent to Death Row for my revolutionary 'crimes,' I'll order as my last meal: a hamburger, french fries, and a coke.
Jerry Rubin

Something very unique about Germany is that once you are suspected or accused of having worked for the Stassi, it doesn't matter if you were 18-years-old, or a child, or an adult back then. Even if you deny it you won't get rid of this suspicion.
Christian Schwochow
Image
You have to let individuals make their own choices and respect that, even if it's your own child. And that's what was taken away from me. My father passed away thinking I still had to go back to his way of believing.
Ayaan Hirsi Ali

You should really try to live your childhood when you’re a child, because if you do it when you’re 26, it can be dangerous.
Mike Lookinland

A poet more than thirty years old is simply an overgrown child.
H. L. Mencken

A child can escape the shadows.

People ask me. 'What about gay adoptions? Interracial? Single Parent?' I say. Hey fine, as long as it works for the child and the family is responsible. My big stand is this: Every child deserves a home and love. Period.
Dave Thomas

There is no friendship, no love, like that of the parent for the child.
Henry Ward Beecher
Image
I am at that age when former child stars go off the rails.
Charlotte Church
Image
It must be weird having one child.
Luke Evans
Image
The business of both parent and teacher is to enable and to help the child to educate himself, to develop his own intellectual, moral, aesthetic and practical capacities and to grow freely as an organic being, not to be kneaded and pressured into form like an inert plastic material

I have a wife and child, and I guess that would constitute a family, and sometimes I watch shows where the people aren't related. And I don't get nervous, get the sweats, and have to run out of the room. I mean, I can handle it.
Andy Richter
Image
When I was a child I experienced moments of not wanting to see the ugliness, not wanting to see not being wanted. This lack of love went into my eyes and into my mind.
John Lennon

I used to love to write. As a child I used to write all the time. I loved to write up until the second I got my first professional writing job. It turns out it's not that I hate to write. I hate, simply, to work.
Fran Lebowitz
Image
I see no greatness in my self...I'm a simple-minded, child-like, insipid sort of moronic and kind of akward feeling adolescent.
Neal Cassady
Image
I want to be a child doctor. A pediatry... how do you call it, pediatrician? Do I like kids? No, not really.
Adriana Lima
Image
I worked for a while as a teaching assistant while I was struggling. I really enjoyed it, working with kids with special needs, autism. It takes a hell of a lot of concentration, and you've got to focus on the child properly for seven hours a day.
Joseph Mawle
Image
I doubt that the imagination can be suppressed. If you truly eradicated it in a child, he would grow up to be an eggplant.
Ursula K. Le Guin
Image
They are inherently good - the bad reactions aren't basic. Every human being is a child of God and has more good in him than evil - but circumstances and associates can step up the bad and reduce the good. I've got great faith in the essential fairness and decency - you may say goodness - of the human being.
Norman Vincent Peale
Image
The hidden child wants to be able to participate and to co-create in art, rather than being simply an admiring viewer.
Christian Morgenstern
Image
When parents are confident that their children will live, they have fewer of them. They invest more in each child's food, health and education.
