Quotable Thursday #5

Welcome to Quotable Thursday


This week I have decided to give you some quotes on children. Enjoy!




Human beings are the only creatures that allow their children to come back home.
Bill Cosby

Ask your child what he wants for dinner only if he's buying.
Fran Lebowitz

The test of the morality of a society is what it does for its children.
Dietrich Bonhoeffer

I have found the best way to give advice to your children is to find out what they want and then advise them to do it.
Harry S Truman

It is not giving children more that spoils them; it is giving them more to avoid confrontation.
John Gray

You know that children are growing up when they start asking questions that have answers.
John J. Plomp

Outings are so much more fun when we can savor them through the children's eyes.
Lawana Blackwell

Our children change us... whether they live or not.
Lois McMaster Bujold

Some men just aren't cut out for paternity. Better they should realize it before and not after they become responsible for a son.
Lois McMaster Bujold

You don't pay back your parents. You can't. The debt you owe them gets collected by your children, who hand it down in turn. It's a sort of entailment. Or if you don't have children of the body, it's left as a debt to your common humanity. Or to your God, if you possess or are possessed by one.
Lois McMaster Bujold
