Pastoral Resources

I have written a few children's books. The first book that I wrote was for children. It was called 'The Package', and it was a mystery story in pictures. It had no words.

It's going to take a certain man for me to ever get involved with, because he'll have to realize I don't have two children, I have three. Tommy is always going to always be a part of my life.

I'm a mother with two small children, so I don't take as much crap as I used to.

A lot of pop music is about stealing pocket money from children.

Mine are the deep-seated fears established when we are children, and they never quite go away: the fear of being helpless, the fear of being trapped, the fear of being out of control.

Children's talent to endure stems from their ignorance of alternatives.

You know, I am mainstream America, and it really doesn't matter what party you're in. When you call your children and you say 'How are you?' - and what you are really asking is, 'Do you still have your job? And are you able to make the mortgage payment?', That resonates across the state, not across party lines.

We need to think of the future and the planet we are going to leave to our children and their children.

Too often, older women are seen as victims, but I know lots of formidable women who have marvellous jobs as well as a full erotic life, and children and friends and family.

Having children with someone is the real bond.

If all the rich and all of the church people should send their children to the public schools they would feel bound to concentrate their money on improving these schools until they met the highest ideals.

Children frequently sing meaningful phrases to themselves over and over again before they learn to make a distinction between singing and saying.

There was one public school for boys, and one for girls, but Jewish children were admitted in limited numbers - only ten to a hundred; and even the lucky ones had their troubles.

You heard on all sides that the brightest Jewish children were turned down if the examining officers did not like the turn of their noses.

You went up to be examined with the other Jewish children, your heart heavy about that matter of your nose.

I was a queen, and you took away my crown; a wife, and you killed my husband; a mother, and you deprived me of my children. My blood alone remains: take it, but do not make me suffer long.

There aren't many poster children for cool angst. Everybody thinks it's cool if you're the bad girl.

I guess my religious faith sustained me more than anything else. Family is also very important. If I didn't have children, it would have been too difficult. Even if you are strong, you still need people who would support you all the way.

Men are but children of a larger growth, Our appetites as apt to change as theirs, And full as craving too, and full as vain.

Children say that people are hung sometimes for speaking the truth.
