Children Quotes
Beating is the worst, and therefore the last means to be us'd in the correction of children, and that only in the cases of extremity, after all gently ways have been try'd, and proved unsuccessful; which, if well observ'd, there will very seldom be any need of blows.

We must speak-blaspheme, if necessary; be accused of being apostates, if that is what is required.
