I thought that would go without saying, that if a mother gives up her children, it's very painful.

Quotes by Doris Lessing

The World War I, I'm a child of World War I. And I really know about the children of war. Because both my parents were both badly damaged by the war. My father, physically, and both mentally and emotionally. So, I know exactly what it's like to be brought up in an atmosphere of a continual harping on the war.

Quotes by Doris Lessing

I got married and I had children because of the Second World War, as all of us did, exclaiming, 'Oh, no, we are never going to bring a child into this wicked world,' but we had children by the dozen and got married.

Quotes by Doris Lessing

Why not, when it can be done without exposure or expense, let me rescue some of America's miserable children from vice and guilt?

Quotes by Dorothea Dix

Steady, firm, and kind government of prisoners is the truest humanity and the best exercise of duty. It is with convicts as with children: unseasonable indulgence, indiscreetly granted, leads to mischiefs which we may deplore but cannot repair.

Quotes by Dorothea Dix

I think it's hard to write about children and to have an idea of innocence.

Quotes by Donna Tartt

I think innocence is something that adults project upon children that's not really there.

Quotes by Donna Tartt

Children - if you think back really what it was like to be a child and what it was like to know other children - children lie all the time.

Quotes by Donna Tartt

Children love secret club houses. They love secrecy even when there's no need for secrecy.

Quotes by Donna Tartt

Children have very sharp powers of observation - probably sharper than adults - yet at the same time their emotional reactions are murky and much more primitive.

Quotes by Donna Tartt

This whole head of the home thing has been blown way out of proportion. Some guys just take it way too far. Some parents take it way too far. Yet children need guidance. They need a parent to help and guide them. They also need a friend. They need a confidant.

Quotes by Donny Osmond

Children need to have a home. I don't mean a physical four walls and a room. There needs to be an emotional and spiritual and loving place in life. That's what a family is.

Quotes by Donald Wuerl

I think a lot of mothers are doing as I am: starting up their own ventures as their children grow older, and having a kind of second blooming.

Quotes by Donna Karan

Imagine, a September 11 with weapons of mass destruction. It's not 3,000. It's tens of thousands of innocent men, women and children.

Quotes by Donald Rumsfeld

By the time I entered college, I had decided not to have children, a decision that was never regretted. Accordingly, I was careful to court only girls who wanted to have professional careers.

Quotes by Donald Cram

The social world is transforming the way we create wealth, work, learn, play, raise our children, and probably the way we think.

Quotes by Don Tapscott

One truth I've learned as a father: Children want presence more than presents. They don't want to read about you; they want you.

Quotes by Don Willett

More than 72 percent of children in the African-American community are born out of wedlock. That means absent fathers.

Quotes by Don Lemon

I think it's good for parents to be supportive, to motivate, and to somewhat nudge their kids because the majority of kids will want to quit something when it gets hard - that's just their nature. Children will normally take the easier road.

Quotes by Dolly Parton

My songs are like my children - I expect them to support me when I'm old.

Quotes by Dolly Parton

Children have always responded to me because I have that cartoon-character look.

Quotes by Dolly Parton

I've never been pregnant, so I just feel God didn't mean for me to have kids so that everybody else's children could be mine.

Quotes by Dolly Parton

I believe that children should not be made to work.

Quotes by Divyanka Tripathi

We don't have the family organization the way we used to. My father lives with us because we have the room. The greatest of all opportunities for our children is a complete family unit.

Quotes by Dixie Carter

Learning can take place in the backyard if there is a human being there who cares about the child. Before learning computers, children should learn to read first. They should sit around the dinner table and hear what their parents have to say and think.

Quotes by Dixie Carter

Imagine your family finally making it from nothing to something, and finally getting things going, and finally buying a beautiful house and taking care of your children - and the next day, it's completely all gone. Zero. Boom. Flat broke. So that's when I had to man up.

The corsets I wore in The Railway Children are still in my undies drawer, a prized relic of my favourite film.

Quotes by Dinah Sheridan

Over my desk hangs a poster from The Railway Children that my husband had framed for me. It is so lovely to see the children smiling as they run down the railway track.

Quotes by Dinah Sheridan

Children... are our legacy. Our responsibility. They are our destiny and we are theirs. The extent to which we fail as parents, we fail as God's children.

Quotes by Dirk Benedict

Children who cling to parents or who don't want to leave home are stunted in their emotional, psychological growth.

Quotes by Dirk Benedict

Methamphetamine is a hideous drug. Meth makes a person become paranoid, violent, and aggressive - making them a serious threat to society and law enforcement. And maybe more importantly, meth users are a threat to their own children and families.

Quotes by Dirk Kempthorne

Experts say that if children can't read by the end of the fifth grade, they lose self-confidence and self-esteem, making them more likely to enter the juvenile justice system.

Quotes by Dirk Kempthorne

My journey with Rajesh Khanna was good, thrilling... a roller coaster ride. I feel honoured to have two children with him.

Quotes by Dimple Kapadia

Women tend to reinvest their proceeds in one another, in their communities, in their children.

Quotes by Dina Powell

A vacation from school should not mean hunger for our children.

Quotes by Dina Titus

Image is something you construct, while reputation starts at home. If you are able to pass on solid values to your children, then they can become citizens of the world.

Quotes by Diego Della Valle

I always try and give a good example to children who follow me.

Quotes by Diego Godin

We are created in the image of our heavenly parents; we are God's spirit children. Therefore, we have a vast capacity for love - it is part of our spiritual heritage.

Quotes by Dieter F. Uchtdorf

Quotes by Dieter F. Uchtdorf

When I turned 11, we had to leave East Germany overnight because of the political orientation of my father. Now I was going to school in West Germany, which was American-occupied at that time. There in school, all children were required to learn English and not Russian. To learn Russian had been difficult, but English was impossible for me.

I suppose the Church would be perfect only if it were run by perfect beings. God is perfect, and His doctrine is pure. But He works through us - His imperfect children - and imperfect people make mistakes.

The ultimate test of a moral society is the kind of world that it leaves to its children.

Quotes by Dikembe Mutombo

As one of seven children, our family life was full of energy and fun - we all knew how to laugh and work hard.

Quotes by Dick Strawbridge

I love the whole idea of family and what gets left behind when you are gone. I'm very proud of my children; I was one of seven.

Quotes by Dick Strawbridge

I cannot tell you what it means when children recognize. This is about the third generation for me. And when kids that small recognize me, it really pleases me, very gratifying.

Quotes by Dick Van Dyke

I don't have any children; I have four middle-aged people.

Quotes by Dick Van Dyke

Quotes by Diana DeGette

Back in the day, years ago, in 1988, the only TV I watched was 'Doctor Who' because I had children and two full-time jobs, and 'Doctor Who' was the exact length of time it took to do my nails, so I would watch 'Doctor Who' once a week!

Quotes by Desmond Tutu

The more I think about her, the more remarkable I realise she was. And she understood straight away when I said that I wanted to write.

Quotes by Derek Walcott

My grandmother, who picked cotton, and my mom, who picked cotton as a child - my grandmother had a work ethic.
