"God wants a child's heart and a grownup's head."

"I was with book, as a woman is with child"

"A woman becomes a responsible parent when she quit being an obedient child."

"It is no use to preach to children if you do not act decently yourself."

"The children now love luxury; they have bad manners, contempt for authority; they show disrespect for elders and love chatter in place of exercise."

"We can easily forgive a child who is afraid of the dark; the real tragedy of life is when men are afraid of the light."
