Give a little love to a child, and you get a great deal back.

John Ruskin

You may give them your love but not your thoughts, for they have their own thoughts. You may house their bodies but not their souls, for their souls dwell in the house of tomorrow, which you cannot visit, not even in your dreams

Kahlil Gibran

A child becomes an adult when he realizes that he has a right not only to be right but also to be wrong

Harry S. Truman

What we want is to see the child in pursuit of knowledge, and not knowledge in pursuit of the child.

George Bernard Shaw

Our children may learn about heroes of the past. Our task is to make ourselves architects of the future.

Jomo Mzee Kenyatta

Loving a child doesn’t mean giving in to all his whims; to love him is to bring out the best in him, to teach him to love what is difficult.

Nadia Boulanger
