In a parenting book that I am reading, it starts each chapter with a couple of quotes from different people. These are some of those quotes that I found to be very good advise. Hope you can find one or more that you like too. Enjoy!
"Mornings provide us with a clean slate. No matter what we did -- or didn't do -- the day before, the sunrise marks a new beginning. Each one of us gets to start life anew every morning." -- Woodeene Koenig-Bricker
"As the family goes, so goes the nation and so goes the whole world in which we live." -- Pope John Paul II
"If you bungle raising your children, I don't think whatever else you do well matters very much." Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis
"Successful parents do what unsuccessful parents are unwilling to do." -- Garcia-Prats
"Whatever the times, one thing will never change: Fathers and mothers, if you have children, they must come first. Your success as a family, our success as a society, depends not on what happens at the White House, but inside your house." -- Barbara Bush
"Our children will rise to the level of expectations we have of them." -- Stand and Deliver quote
"Be what you want your children to be, and watch them grow." -- Leo Buscaglia
"In practicing the art of parenthood an ounce of example is worth a ton of preachment." -- Wilfred A. Peterson
"Lord, make me an instrument of your peace; where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; and where there is sadness, joy. O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled, as to console; to be understood, as to understand; to be loved, as to love; for it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned and it is in dying, that we are born to eternal life." -- St. Francis of Assisi
"I am not asking you tonight, Lord, for time to do this and then that, But your grace to do conscientiously, in the time that you give me, what you want me to do." -- Michel Quoist
"Be the change you want to see in the world." -- Gandhi
"You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give." -- Kahlil Gibran
