Dare to dream... something will always come of it

If you are watching fanatically over the morality of your children you may yourself be not completely in order.

Children are not the people of tomorrow, but people today. They are entitled to be taken seriously. They have a right to be treated by adults with tenderness and respect, as equals. They should be allowed to grow into whoever they were meant to be - The unknown person inside each of them is the hope for the future.

To demand that others should provide you textbook prognoses is like asking a strange woman to give birth to your baby. There are insights that can be born only of your own pain, and they are the most precious.

You will go on blundering, for only he who does nothing avoids errors.

Children, being small and weak, have little market value.

A hundred children, a hundred individuals who are people--not people-to-be, not people of tomorrow, but people now, right now--today.
