GEMS OF THOUGHT
CHILDREN.
The interests of all childhood and youth are the interests of mankind.— Janes. What the best and wisest parent wants for his own child that must the community want for all its children. — John Dewey. The training of children is a profession, where we must know how to lose time in order to gain it. —Rousseau. A deceit or falsehood is never wise. Too much cannot be done towards guarding and guiding well the germinating and inclining thought of childhood. —Mary Baker Eddy. Who feels injustice; who shrinks before a slight; who has a sense of wrong so acute, and so glowing a gratitude for kindness, as a generous boy? —Thackeray. It is better to bind your children to you by respect and gentldness, than by fear.—Terence.
