I believe the best service to the child is the service closest to the child and children who are victims of neglect abuse or abandonment must not also be victims of bureaucracy. They deserve our devoted attention not our divided attention.

I am afraid we must make the world honest before we can honestly say to our children that honesty is the best policy.

Treat your kid like a darling for the first five years. For the next five years scold them. By the time they turn sixteen treat them like a friend. Your grown up children are your best friends.

I have found the best way to give advice to your children is to find out what they want and then advise them to do it.

I have a fantastic wife and not only in terms of external beauty. Her priority and mine is our children. That is our choice.

When you are at the bottom you find beauty in such little things and goodness in such little gestures. When I compare any struggle today to ones that I may have had in my childhood there is nothing that can bring me down.

My mama told me in college 'I love you and you're God's child but natural beauty will only take you so far.'

A child does not notice the greatness and the beauty of nature and the splendor of God in his works.

We have magnificent brains but we use a great deal of our brilliance to keep ourselves stuck and ignorant to keep ourselves from not shining. We are so afraid of our beauty and radiance and brilliance because it scared the adults around us when we were children.

You too women cast away all the cowards from your embraces they will give you only cowards for children and you who are the daughters of the land of beauty must bear children who are noble and brave.
