"Where there is a mother in the home, matters go well"

Children enjoy the present because they have neither a past nor a future.

Lawyers, I suppose, were children once.

Credulity is the man's weakness, but the child's strength

A child learns to discard his ideals, whereas a grown-up never wears out his short pants.

How paramount the future is to the present when one is surrounded by children

You know full well as I do the value of sisters' affections: There is nothing like it in this world
