The culture looms much larger than you do as a parent, and one can hardly rely on the culture to impart the lesson that womanhood is valuable.

Now that I'm a parent, I know that my parents were incredibly brave.

Quotes by Ruby Bridges

I find Maersk fascinating. It is the Coca-Cola of freight with none of the fame. Its parent company, A. P. Moller-Maersk, is Denmark's largest company, its sales equal to 20 percent of Denmark's GDP; its ships use more oil than the entire nation.

Quotes by Rachel Simmons

There's no question that aggression can be learned through modeling. When a child sees her parent behave in a particular way, she may be tempted or even rewarded for being that way.

Quotes by Polly Berrien Berends

We trace out all the veins of the earth, and yet, living upon it, undermined as it is beneath our feet, are astonished that it should occasionally cleave asunder or tremble: as though, forsooth, these signs could be any other than expressions of the indignation felt by our sacred parent!

Quotes by Pliny the Elder

In February of 1996, about six months after I created eBay, I started receiving a spate of complaints. Everyone was complaining about each other. I felt very much like I was a parent who had to adjudicate the brothers beating each other up.

Quotes by Pierre Omidyar

An unmarried adult who cannot navigate the welfare system has no choice but to work, but a married working parent is constantly evaluating the relative merits of staying home with the kids versus bringing home that second paycheck.

Quotes by Philip Greenspun

Quotes by Michael Sheen

It's important that when kids are listening to my music they don't think of it as their parent's music.

Quotes by Mayer Hawthorne

You don't have to be an at-home parent to be an attachment parent.

Quotes by Karan Johar

I'm still my parent's child, I'm still me, but I made a choice. I evolved into Kareem Abdul-Jabbar. I think it has to do with evolution.

Quotes by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

As a parent, I have a job as a role model to my children, and by extension, to other young people.

Quotes by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

If you have a smothering parent, the effect it can apparently have on a child is to give them, in equal doses, a sense of too much self-esteem, because they are mummy's little princess or prince, and low self-esteem. It affects future relationships.
