We can give our children only two things in life which are essential. Strong roots and powerful wings. Then they may fly anywhere and live independently. Of all the luxuries in life, the greatest luxury is getting freedom of the right kind.

About This Quote

The quote "We can give our children only two things in life which are essential. Strong roots and powerful wings. Then they may fly anywhere and live independently. Of all the luxuries in life, the greatest luxury is getting freedom of the right kind." is a beautiful piece of literature that I read in my childhood.

It made me realize that money, if it's available, will not be enough to make your children happy. What you can give them is not merely money but an important key for survival, so they can live independently after you are gone.
