There never was a tonic that would cure more social ailments than a healthy, happy home. There never was a greater source of social stability than an affectionate and understanding family. There never was a better way of helping children to happiness than the close confidence of wise and loving and responsible parents.

A person soon learns how little he knows when a child begins to ask questions.

What is it that makes us suppose that we can more easily do twice tomorrow what we didn't do once today!

No man is so wise that he cannot benefit by talking things out with others.

I don't think anything is unrealistic if you believe you can do it.

The interruption we now impatiently put off may be the most important thing we could be doing at this particular time?

Parents sometimes simply don't have enough hands and time and attention to do all that is urgent. But in all things there is a priority of importance....and one of our urgent opportunities is to respond to a child when he earnestly asks, remembering that they don't always ask, that they aren't always teachable, that they won't always listen.
