Young children are such nasty little beasts!

I don't particularly like children. That sounds awful, but I have nothing to say to them.

I'm really terrible with small children; they're small, noisy, irritating, damp and soggy.

There are three terrible ages of childhood - 1 to 10, 10 to 20, and 20 to 30.

Children are wonderful, and they add to my whole life.

I grew up with a menagerie of dogs, cats, gerbils - not to mention three younger siblings.

Anyone who hates children and animals can't be all bad.

Ever since I was two, I've loved octopuses, monsters, abandoned buildings.

I see a lot of my children. They're around the house all the time on the farm, you know.
