Theodor Seuss Geisel:
"You make 'em, I amuse 'em."
"...adults are just obsolete children, and the hell with them."
"Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened."

Jedi Master Yoda:
"Truly wonderful, the mind of a child is."

Joe Houldsworth:
"The only thing worth stealing is a kiss from a sleeping child."

George Eliot:
"In old days there were angels who came and took men by the hand and led them away from the city of destruction. We see no white-winged angels now. But yet men are led away from threatening destruction: a hand is put into theirs, which leads them forth gently towards a calm and bright land, so that they look no more backward; and the hand may be a little child's."

Charles de Lint:
"Children are the brightest treasures we bring forth into this world, but too large a percentage of the population continues to treat them as inconveniences and nuisances, when they're not treating them as possessions or toys."

Groucho Marx:
"A child of five would understand this. Send someone to fetch a child of five."

Mignon McLaughlin:
"Only where children gather is there any real chance of fun."

Fran Lebowitz:
"I must take issue with the term 'a mere child,' for it has been my invariable experience that the company of a mere child is infinitely preferable to that of a mere adult. "
