Quotes about children
children animal men
Our children think our world will end. It's a tragic thing. Adults don't think that. They don't see that we are eating the planet. But we are.

People move because of the wear and tear of anxiety. Because of the gnawing feeling that no matter how hard they work their efforts will yield nothing, that what they build up in one year will be torn down in one day by others.

children thinking people
These people walk by a widow deformed by leprosy...walk by children dressed in rags living in the street, and they think, 'Business as usual.'

Their resolve is frightening.

Xavier Becerra
