Children are like buds in a garden and should be carefully and lovingly nurtured, as they are the future of the nation and the citizens of tomorrow.

History will judge us by the difference we make in the everyday lives of children.

Our children are the rock on which our future will be built, our greatest asset as a nation. They will be the leaders of our country, the creators of our national wealth, those who care for and protect our people.

The most beautiful sight in the world is a little child going confidently down the road of life after you have shown him the way.

Since the day of creation, the fondest hopes of men and women have been to pass on to their children something better than they themselves enjoyed. That hope represents a spark of the Divine which is implanted in every human breast.

There can be no keener revelation of a society's soul than the way in which it treats its children.
