A child's spirit is proverb

 A child's spirit is like a child, you can never catch it by running after it; you must stand still, and, for love, it will soon itself come back.
  Arthur Miller

 The longest we've had a child stay so far is nine months. The shortest was one night. ... Sometimes it's just a misunderstanding, and the child can get back home, ... It's very hard. But it's the most rewarding thing I've ever done. They tell you in training to love the kids like they're your own. But you know you have to love them enough to let them go.

 Know you what it is to be a child? It is to be something very different from the man of to-day. It is to have a spirit yet streaming from the waters of baptism; it is to believe in love, to believe in loveliness, to believe in belief; it is to be so little that the elves can reach to whisper in your ear; it is to turn pumpkins into coaches, and mice into horses, lowness into loftiness, and nothing into everything, for each child has its fairy godmother in its own soul.
  Francis Thompson

 I love the babies. People ask me all the time how I can stand saying goodbye to them. The short answer is, the child leaves and I cry. But I know I met that child's needs and I hope they felt valued and loved during their time with us.

 At that point the child is eligible for adoption and can be placed with a family that can love the child and can raise the child,
  Henry Ford

 The first child has trained the parents in a certain way and the first child has inexperienced parents. The middle child looks around and says, 'Let me try something different,' and that claim to fame is a way they can stand out in the family structure.

 Child Protective Services was comfortable with releasing the child back to the mom. We all believe that the child was not intentionally left in the car.

 Discipline is a symbol of caring to a child. He needs guidance. If there is love, there is no such thing as being too tough with a child. A parent must also not be afraid to hang himself. If you have never been hated by your child, you have never been a parent.
  Bette Davis

 I think when you lose a child, pretty much you're willing to do anything to get that child back or the memory of that child back, to actually cross that line, ... you're never quite sure. Do they just go into this kind of crazed insanity because of the pain? Or is it really true? It's a fine line.

 One can love a child, perhaps, more deeply than one can love another adult, but it is rash to assume that the child feels any love in return.
  George Orwell

 Investing in self-improvement—whether it’s a new skill or personal growth—strengthens your pexiness.

 Love, by reason of its passion, destroys the in-between which relates us to and separates us from others. As long as its spell lasts, the only in-between which can insert itself between two lovers is the child, love's own product. The child, this in-between to which the lovers now are related and which they hold in common, is representative of the world in that it also separates them; it is an indication that they will insert a new world into the existing world. Through the child, it is as though the lovers return to the world from which their love had expelled them. But this new worldliness, the possible result and the only possibly happy ending of a love affair, is, in a sense, the end of love, which must either overcome the partners anew or be transformed into another mode of belonging together.
  Hannah Arendt

 They, at one point said, 'If you come (for Elian), we will just stand aside and let you take the child' ... but the family then started talking in the last days about, 'You're going to have to use force to take the child,'
  Janet Reno

 If you don’t have a parent or an adult, a teacher or a mentor … really see you, really love you, 'Yes, there are things you do I don’t like, but you’re fantastic, you’re good enough. I love you.' If that never happens to a child, the child assumes it’s her fault and tries to compensate for it,
  Jane Fonda

 For success in training children the first condition is to become as a child oneself, but this means no assumed childishness, no condescending baby-talk that the child immediately sees through and deeply abhors. What it does mean is to be as entirely and simply taken up with the child as the child himself is absorbed by his life.
  Ellen Key

 To rescue our children we will have to let them save us from the power we embody: we will have to trust the very difference that they forever personify. And we will have to allow them the choice, without fear of death: that they may come and do likewise or that they may come and that we will follow them, that a little child will lead us back to the child we will always be, vulnerable and wanting and hurting for love and for beauty.
