Each day of our lives we make deposits in the memory banks of our children.
It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men.
The greatest gifts you can give your children are the roots of responsibility and the wings of independence.
My children are the reason I laugh, smile and want to get up every morning.
Why do children dread mathematics? Because of the wrong approach. Because it is looked at as a subject.
The most important thing that parents can teach their children is how to get along without them.
My children teach me to slow down and enjoy life.
A mother's arms are made of tenderness and children sleep soundly in them.
Live so that when your children think of fairness, caring, and integrity, they think of you.
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.
Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.
We also have to make sure our children know the history of women. Tell them the rotten truth: It wasn't always possible for women to become doctors or managers or insurance people. Let them be armed with a true picture of the way we want it to be.

Parents should talk with their children about computer ethics, stipulate rules of conduct, and — most importantly — establish consequences.
Nobody can do for little children what grandparents do. Grandparents sort of sprinkle stardust over the lives of little children.
There is the myth that writing books for children is easier than writing books for grownups, whereas we know that truly great books for children are works of genius, whether it's 'Alice in Wonderland' or the 'Gruffalo' or 'Northern Lights'. When it's a great book, it's a great book, whether it's for children or not.
I prefer peace. But if trouble must come, let it come in my time, so that my children can live in peace.
Regard your soldiers as your children, and they will follow you into the deepest valleys; look on them as your own beloved sons, and they will stand by you even unto death.
Children show me in their playful smiles the divine in everyone. This simple goodness shines straight from their hearts and only asks to be loved.
Once I showed up at my sister's with a baby rabbit I had bought from some children because its ears were cold. I put the rabbit on a hot water bottle and massaged its ears for quite a while. After all, I knew that all healthy animals had warm ears.
