Do not train a child to learn by force or harshness; but direct them to it by what amuses their minds, so that you may be better able to discover with accuracy the peculiar bent of the genius of each.
I have frequently gained my first real insight into the character of parents by studying their children.
If children grew up according to early indications, we should have nothing but geniuses. - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
We can't form our children on our own concepts; we must take them and love them as God gives them to us. - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
There are only two lasting bequests we can hope to give our children. One of these is roots, the other, wings. - Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Kids will remind you that, even though you've gone down a road 100 times, it's brand new for them - and that's healthy. - Matthew McConaughey
As I see it, fast food outfits have targeted small children with their advertising in a very effective way. You know, it's clowns and kid's toys and bright colors and things like that. - Anthony Bourdain
I think that if all kids aspire to reach a point where they could feed themselves and a few of their friends, this would be good for the world surely. - Anthony Bourdain
Children are people, and they should have to reach to learn about things, to understand things, just as adults have to reach if they want to grow in mental stature.
