I had two children. I had a nanny to manage my kids.

Both young children and old people have a lot of time on their hands. That's probably why they get along so well.

War may sometimes be a necessary evil. But no matter how necessary, it is always an evil, never a good. We will not learn how to live together in peace by killing each other's children.

It is good to realize that if love and peace can prevail on earth, and if we can teach our children to honor nature's gifts, the joys and beauties of the outdoors will be here forever.

I love all my children, but some of them I don't like.

If I had one wish for my children, it would be that each of them would reach for goals that have meaning for them as individuals.

We don't have the family organization the way we used to. My father lives with us because we have the room. The greatest of all opportunities for our children is a complete family unit.

Learning can take place in the backyard if there is a human being there who cares about the child. Before learning computers, children should learn to read first. They should sit around the dinner table and hear what their parents have to say and think.

I was like one of those nauseatingly nice children. I was very, very well behaved and boring.

There are only two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children. One of these is roots, the other, wings.

We will not learn how to live together in peace by killing each other's children.

If we are genuinely committed to promoting a culture of peace, as individuals we must look to our values and ensure that we all exhibit a peace loving life to our nation's children.

You must work - we must all work to make the world worthy of its children.

We must make children and families a national priority.

We have had virtually unlimited access to abortion for nearly twenty years. Yet during that same period, more and more women and children have slipped into poverty.

Today, the growing economic and social pressures in our country are putting millions of women, children and families at increased risk of abuse and neglect, especially when families are denied basic support services and economic opportunity.

The abortion license has not brought freedom and security to women. Rather, it has ushered in a new era of irresponsibility toward women and children, one that now begins before birth.

The advocates of abortion on demand falsely assume two things: that women must suffer if the lives of unborn children are legally protected; and that women can only attain equality by having the legal option of destroying their innocent offspring in the womb.

No, my step-daughter just opened a theatre school for children, I have another daughter who works in the record industry and another who is going back to collage and I have two little ones at home.

We're not children here. The law is-how should I put it? A convenience. Or a convenience for some people, and an inconvenience for other people.
