Joni Mitchell Children Quotations

An unhappy mother does not raise a happy child.

When the spirit of child's play enters into the creative process, it's a wonderful force and something to be nurtured.

Yesterday a child came out to wonder Caught a dragonfly inside a jar Fearful when the sky was full of thunder And tearful at the falling of a star

I came upon a child of god, He was walking along the road And I asked him, where are you going And this he told me: "I'm going on down to Yasgur's farm I'm going to join in a rock 'n' roll band I'm going to camp out on the land, I'm going to try an' get my soul free.

You've got to keep the child alive; you can't create without it.
