Parenthood and family come first for me, and when I'm not working I'm cool with the Teletubbies.
Clive Owen
Image
Parenthood remains the greatest single preserve of the amateur.
Alvin Toffler
Image
Parenthood abruptly catapults us into a permanent relationship with a stranger.
Andrew Solomon
Image
Parenthood is such a lesson in self-sacrifice.
Angela Kinsey
Image
Parenthood is an endless series of small events, periodic conflicts, and sudden crises which call for a response. The response is not without consequence: it affects personality for better or for worse.
Haim Ginott
Image
Parenthood is an amazing opportunity to be able to ruin someone from scratch.
Jon Stewart
Image
Parenthood is nothing but doubts.
Tess Gerritsen
Image
Parenthood means becoming comfortable with the fact that there are things outside your control, things that end and fail, just as most utopias end and by some measure fail. And just because they're a failure doesn't mean there isn't value there.
Lauren Groff
Image
Parenthood is a school for humility. We can't choose the precise traits of our children, and that is morally important. It teaches us what William May, a theologian whom I greatly admire, calls an openness to the unbidden.
Michael Sandel
Image
Parenthood, like death, is an event for which it is nearly impossible to be prepared. It brings you into a new relationship with the fact of your own existence, a relationship in which one may be rendered helpless.
Rachel Cusk
Image
Parenthood changes your outlook on life. Makes you realize what things are important. The responsibility is huge. Just to have that responsibility in your hands is a little frightening, but it's exciting at the same time.
Chris Bosh
Image
Parenthood always involves recognizing your child as separate and different from you.
Andrew Solomon
Image
Parenthood has the power to redefine every aspect of life - marriage, work, relationships with family and friends. Those helpless bundles of power and promise that come into our world show us our true selves- who we are, who we are not, who we wish we could be.
Hillary Clinton
Image
Protecting life is a value that matters. Whether it is stopping partial birth abortion which I think is a barbarism. Or whether it is fairly enforcing the criminal laws against Planned Parenthood.
Ted Cruz
Image
Planned Parenthood is a gigantic bully, using Komen as its own personal punching bag.
Karen Handel
Image
The most convincing argument against early parenthood is that you are in a relationship that is likely to fall apart before that child grows up.
Tony Parsons
Image
If John Lennon was right that life is what happens when you're making other plans, parenthood is what happens when everything is flipped over and spilling everywhere and you can't find a towel or a sponge or your inside voice.
Kelly Corrigan
Image
In practicing the art of parenthood, an ounce of example is worth a ton of preachment.
Wilferd Peterson
Image
Anything that opens you up emotionally is going to impact your acting. Parenthood, becoming a mom, certainly does that.
Keri Russell
Image
It's the best thing going, parenthood.
Woody Harrelson
Image
This president [Barack Obama] is undermining our military. This president is more interested in funding Planned Parenthood than in funding the military.
Marco Rubio
Image
One of the gifts of parenthood is that it forces you to be a bit more conscious about it, if only because you quickly realize that those kids are learning from your every action.
Mark Deklin
Image
I don't think anyone masters parenthood.
Melissa Etheridge
Image
The other effect that I worry about is the effect on the parent, that the moral teaching of humility and of the limits to our control that parenthood teaches- - that that will be lost and that we will begin to think of children more as consumer goods than as gifts that we can't fully control and for which we aren't fully responsible.
