“Children listen best with their eyes. What you do is what they hear.”

“You are never listening to what someone is saying, you are only ever listening to what you are hearing”

“Careful the things you say,Children will listen.Careful the things you do,Children will see.And learn.Children may not obeyBut children will listen.Children will look to youFor which way to turn,To learn what to be.Careful before you say,"Listen to me."Children will listen.”

“JUST LISTEN “When your mind is quiet and you listen closely, you will hear the children weeping silently. If you can’t quite hear their cries, then listen with your eyes. These are the children of the streets, who have learned pain and suffering before they ever had a chance to experience life. Do not ignore their cries for help, for all they wish is that you will rescue them. They do not have a family that wants them, they don’t know how it feels to be loved and they’ve never lived anywhere that felt like home…the streets are where they find their voice and relief from all of the suffering.Just listen and you’ll see them.”

“You can't make people listen to you. People only hear what they want to hear.”

“....there is a difference between hearing and listening. You can't always help what you hear. But you can control what holds your interest, what you choose to dwell on.”
