Quote

Once you've raised a child to adulthood, you can only be as demanding as your offspring allow.

The most important thing with children is to give them your time. Actually, that's all that matters.

The powerlessness of the child is often forgotten. And after it comes the terrifying phase of moving into adulthood.

What a child doesn't receive he can seldom later give.

Time becomes more precious when you have children.

Time misspent in youth is sometimes all the freedom one ever has.

To be adult is to be alone.

You can never spend enough time with children.

A child, like your stomach, doesn't need all you can afford to give it.

Every child needs to have for itself not only its loving parents and siblings and friends of its own age, but a grown-up friend.
