Quotes about children
children pain home
Many immigrants do not talk about what they endured back home.

They didn't want to burden their children with what they had endured. Isabel Wilkerson
children loss thinking
That's one of the biggest losses, I think, to African American families, is that people, once they left, they turned away from the South. They didn't look back, and they often didn't tell their children about it. They didn't want to talk about it. It was too painful, what they'd gone through and the caste system of the South, which was Jim Crow. Isabel Wilkerson

For you are marrying a man whom you already suspect of being a villain. But I have not so poor an opinion of men that I believe the greater percentage of them to be such low specimens of humanity. Isadora Duncan

You have mismanaged the world, and it shall be taken from you. Jack London
