Benjamin Franklin
Teach your child to hold his tongue, He'll learn fast enough to speak.
|
Bible
When I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
|
Bible
In Rama was there a voice heard, lamentation, and weeping, and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children, and would not be comforted, because they are not.
|
Bible
A wise son maketh a glad father: but a foolish son is the heaviness of his mother.
|
Bible
Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
|
Bible
Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.
|
Bible
Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward. As arrows are in the hand of a mighty man; so are children of the youth. Happy is the man that hath his quiver full of them: they shall not be ashamed, but they shall speak with the enemies in the gate.
|
Bible
Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine by the sides of thine house: thy children like olive plants round about thy table.
|
Charles M. Dickinson
They are idols of hearts and of households; They are angels of God in disguise; His sunlight still sleeps in their tresses, His glory still gleams in their eyes; Those truants from home and from Heaven They have made me more manly and mild; And I know now how Jesus could liken The kingdom of God to a child.

Charles M. Dickinson
When the lessons and tasks are all ended, And the school for the day is dismissed, The little one gather around me, To bid me good-night and be kissed; On, the little white arms that encircle My neck in their tender embrace Oh, the smiles that are halos of heaven, Shedding sunshine of love on my face.
|
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Do ye hear the children weeping, O my brothers, Ere the sorrow comes with years? They are leaning their young heads against their mothers, And that cannot stop their tears.
|
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Women know The way to rear up children to be just; They know a simple, merry, tender knack Of tying sashes, fitting baby-shoes, And stringing pretty words that make no sense, And kissing full sense into empty words; Which things are corals to cut life upon, Although such trifles.
|
Eugene Field
Wynken, Blynken and Nod one night Sailed off in a wooden shoe-- Sailed on a river of crystal light Into a sea of dew.
|
Oliver Goldsmith
By sports like these are all their cares beguil'd, The sports of children satisfy the child.
