Children

Mick Jagger & Keith Richards

War, children, it’s just a shot away.

Charles Dickens

Father Time is not always a hard parent, and, though he tarries    for none of his children, often lays his hand lightly upon those who have   used him well; making  them old men and women inexorably enough, but leaving their hearts and spirits young and in full vigor. With such people the grey head is but the impression of the old fellow's hand in giving them his blessing, and every wrinkle but a notch in the quiet calendar of a well-spent life.

Fyodor Dostoevsky

The soul is healed by being with children.  

Hodding Carter

There are two lasting bequests we can give our children: one is roots, the other is wings.

Marian W Edelman

If we don't stand up for children then we don't stand for much

Mary Ellen Chase

Christmas children is not a date It is a state of mind
