In the little world in which children have their existence, whosoever brings them up, there is nothing so finely perceived and so finely felt, as injustice.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The greatest injustice in the world is to bring a child into the world, and not be able to offer it peace.
A lot of children grow up in poverty with flawed parents, but their inner world is still as inherently filled with wonder and innocence as children who are kept away from the city's underbelly.
So long as little children are allowed to suffer, there is no true love in this world.
Fight injustice, that our children might be blessed.
While children are struggling to be unique, the world around them is trying all means to make them look like everybody else.
When you look at children, they're so beautiful, and they seem so peaceful because their faces aren't all wrinkly and worried. They're like beautiful little pieces of pottery or something. You want to think they have this peace because they have no big responsibilities, but it's just not true.
Rich or poor, every child comes into the world with some imperative need of its own, which shapes its individuality.
One of the most painful things in the Western States and Territories is the extinction of childhood. I have never seen any children - only debased imitations of men and women, cankered by greed and selfishness, and asserting and gaining complete independence of their parents at ten years old.
Every young person has to bear the burden - heavier in proportion as the individuality is richer - of accommodating himself to existence now that it is no longer seen with the eyes of a child, the eyes to which everything is as it should be.
Little children, you are from God, and have conquered them; for the one who is in you is greater than the one who is in this world.
