David Jeremiah Quotes

We learn many things from children, always.

The child must teach the man.

The more we become able to become a child again, to keep ourselves childlike, the more we can understand that because we love the world and we are open to understanding, to comprehension, that when we kill the child in us, we are no longer.

It would be wonderful if this world was guided by little children, because they are closer to life than anyone else.

And yet we constantly reclaim some part of that primal spontaneity through the youngest among us, not only through their sorrow and anger but simply through everyday discoveries, life unwrapped.
