"We all share a common goal - we want our children to succeed"

"Raising children is an incredibly hard and risky business in which no cumulative wisdom is gained: each generation repeats the mistakes the previous one made"

"If at first you don't succeed, try, try again"

"If children grew up according to early indications, we should have nothing but geniuses"

"Children begin by loving their parents; after a time they judge them; rarely, if ever, do they forgive them"

"Do what you do best, and you will succeed"

"At the heart of the Reggio Emilia approach is the belief that children are full of potential, competent, and capable of constructing their own learning"

"Parents are the bones on which children cut their teeth"

"The soul is healed by being with children"

"Our task, regarding creativity, is to help children climb their own mountains, as high as possible. No one can do more"

"Everybody knows how to raise children, except the people who have them"
