Quotes About Child

If a mother can make it clear to a child that at that particular moment when she slapped him her love for him deserted her and she was dominated by other feelings that had nothing to do with the child, the child can keep a clear head, feel respected, and not be disoriented in his relationship to his mother.
~ Alice Miller
In the tradition we are dealing with, it was considered obstinacy and was therefore frowned upon to have a will and mind of one's own. It is easy to understand that an intelligent child would want to escape punishments devised for those possessing these traits and that he or she could do so without any difficulty. What the child didn't realize was that escape came at a high price.
~ Alice Miller
Something so divine that no one up in heaven could have made it up; the care a child took with an adult.
~ Alice Sebold
My father dreamed that one day he might teach another child to love ships in bottles. He knew there would be both sadness and joy in it; that it would always hold an echo of me.
~ Alice Sebold
Like Jesus, who didn't know who his biological father was either. I have often thought it was this lack of knowledge of his earthly father that led him to his 'heavenly' one, for there is in all of us a yearning to know our own source, and no source is likely to seem too farfetched to a lonely, fatherless child.
~ Alice Walker
One crying child is the rotten apple in the barrel of the tribe!
~ Alice Walker
how long before hope begins to eat itself? how many flags must be waved? when does a man let go of his wife's hand in order to hold his child?
~ Alix Olson
Place a small child in a crib with a rabbit and an apple. If it eats the rabbit and plays with the apple, I'll buy you a new car." Harvey Diamond, co-author Fit For Life
~ Allen Carr
An Eastern Ballad I speak of love that comes to mind: The moon is faithful, although blind; She moves in thought she cannot speak. Perfect care has made her bleak. I never dreamed the sea so deep, The earth so dark; so long my sleep, I have become another child. I wake to see the world go wild.
~ Allen Ginsberg

breaks a rule or two, of course! But a worrisome trait to notice is if your child violates rules and gets joy and adrenaline from doing so. Future psychopaths can only feel when they do something bad and get away with it. Normal life doesn't provide them with enough serotonin and happiness. So watch out for a child who seems happiest when they have stolen another kid's toy, or deliberately done something you have told them specifically NOT to do!
~ Amanda Eyre Ward
Loss of that loyalty, respect and trust would destroy the Cobriana. Loss of their royal line would destroy the serpiente. If the serpiente refused to acknowledge Danica's child as their monarch, no number of guards would be able to keep that child on the throne. I had walked this precarious balance before, when I had declared Danica my mate. If necessary, I would do it again.
~ Amelia Atwater-Rhodes
Nacola Shardae, damn her feathers, was a true queen. In that single little speech, she managed to hit every vulnerability and fear Danica and I had regarding this child.
~ Amelia Atwater-Rhodes
Shaking a baby or child in a moment of frustration or anger can cause serious harm or death. Babies have weak neck muscles and heavy heads, and when a baby is shaken, the head flops back and forth, causing serious damage. Shaking a baby or child can cause sever injury, resulting in problems ranging from brain damage to death.
~ American National Red Cross
There was a long, ugly pause. Uglier than the child of a man and a sheep, as the hillmen have it.
~ Joe Abercrombie
that if you were a woman and you had a child, you lost everything, you would be held hostage by love: a terrorist who would only be satisfied when you surrendered your entire future.
~ Joe Hill
Every child should have a caring adult in their lives. And that's not always a biological parent or family member. It may be a friend or neighbor. Often times it is a teacher.
~ Joe Manchin
I DECLARE I am special and extraordinary. I am not average! I have been custom-made. I am one of a kind. Of all the things God created, what He is the most proud of is me. I am His masterpiece, his most prized possession. I will keep my head held high, knowing I am a child of the most high God, made in his very image. This is my declaration.
~ Joel Osteen
Whatever your critics say about you has no bearing on your worth. You are a child of the Most High God. The Creator of the universe breathed life into you. You have seeds of greatness on the inside. You've been crowned with favor. God has already equipped and empowered you with everything you need. Don't waste your valuable time trying to play up to people, trying to win over all your critics, or trying to prove to someone that you're important.
~ Joel Osteen
You are a child of the Most High God.
~ Joel Osteen
Father in heaven, thank You that I can come boldly before You, knowing that as Your child this is the right place for me to be. Thank You that I don't have to earn Your favor or be good enough to come into Your presence. I declare that I am coming boldly to pray bold prayers and to dream bold dreams. In Jesus' Name. Amen.
~ Joel Osteen
You can, instead of trying to use God or make God your servant, submit yourself to God; be God's child, God's instrument through which God's glory is made manifest on earth. Then, let God's glory flow through you. It will never be your glory, regardless of how beautiful you are or become, or how worthy or worthwhile.
~ Joel S. Goldsmith
If a serious statement is defined as one that may be made in terms of waking life, poetry will never rise to the level of seriousness. It lies beyond seriousness, on that more primitive and original level where the child, the animal, the savage, and the seer belong, in the region of dream, enchantment, ecstasy, laughter. To understand poetry we must be capable of donning the child's soul like a magic cloak and of forsaking man's wisdom for the child's.
~ Johan Huizinga
