Send forth the child and childish man together, and blush for the pride that libels our own old happy state, and gives its title to an ugly and distorted image.
Charles Dickens
Image
It has been my experience that most human stories are circular rather than linear. Regardless of the path we choose, we somehow end up where we commenced - in part, I suspect, because the child who lives in us goes along for the ride.
James Lee Burke
Image
I never really liked meat. I was a child that had to be forced to eat my meat. Whatever you ate before that you loved like turkey slices they've got a substitute now that's not hard to find.
Masta Killa
Image
I never read to kill time. Killing time is like killing someone's wife or a child. There is nothing more precious for me than time.
Stanislaw Lem
Image
By 1990, no Australian child will be living in poverty.
Bob Hawke

Parents - and teachers too - are woefully short-sighted when they try to protect the child from his mistakes, when they make the right answer more important than the quest for knowledge and good judgment. For what is not learned within one's self cannot be learned from another.
Sydney J. Harris

Children love their mothers. Especially with a boy child and his mother, there's a bond that's unbreakable.
Tyler Perry
Image
All of my judges will want to welcome every child into the world, give them a place at the table.
Gary Bauer

I always say that a successful parent is one who raises a child so that they can pay for their own psychoanalysis.
Nora Ephron

As a child, I had a deck of Marvel top trumps. You can get top trumps with racing cars, or fighter planes, or football players... I had all of the Marvel superheroes and super-villains you could get, and I used to play them with my friends. They were all listed according to their height and weight and agility and their super-powers.
Tom Hiddleston
Image
The day your child says she hates you, and every child will go through the phase, it kicks like a foot in the stomach.
Kathryn Stockett
Image
I don't feel I was ever a 'famous' child actor. I was just a working actor who happened to be a kid. I was never really in a hit show until I was a teenager with West Wing playing First Daughter Zoey Bartlet. In a way, that was my saving grace - not being a star on a hit show. It kept me working and kept me grounded.
Elisabeth Moss

The child’s parents are not his makers but his guardians.
Maria Montessori
Image
You've got to keep the child alive you can't create without it.
Joni Mitchell
Image
A treatment method or an educational method that will work for one child may not work for another child. The one common denominator for all of the young children is that early intervention does work, and it seems to improve the prognosis.
Temple Grandin
Image
There is no evidence that suggests women are naturally better at caring for children... with the fact of child-bearing out of the centre of attention, there is even more reason for treating girls first as human beings, then as women.
Margaret Mead
Image
Because as an only child, you have your own little world.
Maynard James Keenan
Image
All good New Orleanians go to look at the Mississippi at least once a day. At night it is like creeping into a dark bedroom to look at a sleeping child--something of that sort--gives you the same warm nice feeling, I mean.
Sherwood Anderson
Image
One reason nearly half my books are for children is the glorious fact that the minds of children are still open to the living word in the child, nightside and sunside are not yet separated fantasy contains truths which cannot be stated in terms of proof.
Madeleine L'Engle
Image
Just try to stay a child as long as you can. Don't force into adulthood.
Michael Jackson
Image
A child motivated by competitive ideals will grow into a man without conscience, shame, or true dignity.
George Sand
Image
The mother as a social servant instead of a home servant will not lack in true mother duty. From her work, loved and honored though it is, she will return to her home life, the child life, with an eager, ceaseless pleasure, cleansed of all the fret and fraction and weariness that so mar it now.
Charlotte Perkins Gilman
Image
When I was a child, I was one of the kids who wore black all the time, and when the kids asked me why I wore black, I said things like, 'I'm mourning the death of modern society.' I mean, I was a riot.
Maggie Stiefvater

A Russian child asked his mother : does God know we don't believe in Him?
